Instructor Operating Station

Easy to use Instructor Operator Interface for conducting and managing training:

  • Bird’s eye Stealth view and 2D and/or 3D map views

  • Comprehensive instructor and scoring tools

  • Drag & drop creation, on-the-fly modification, execution and rehearsal of exercises

  • Plug & play networking to other simulators for platoon, convoy, and combined arms training

  • Observation, record, and playback of simulated event

  • No exercise compilation required

  • Storage of exercises in structured exercise libraries is supported

  • Networkable using DIS/ HLA protocol

The training session for all KNDS simulators is controlled from an Instructor Operator Station (IOS).

The following displays are integrated:

  • Vehicle status information display

  • IMI® Graphical User Interface

  • Stealth view display

  • Daughter display of the student view

  • Surveillance camera to supervise the trainee inside the simulator cabin

Other controls for the instructor are

  • controls for activation and deactivation of the motion system including safety switches

  • a microphone and a touch-screen to control radio/intercom to communicate to the trainee

  • keyboard, mouse

  • a 3D “space” mouse to control stealth view

  • a printer

  • a speaker is integrated for the output of the sound-simulation and communication

A unique feature of the KNDS USA IOS is the addition of our student grading software.  This is highly integrated with this training program and is able to score 95% of all of objective factors leaving only the small 5% of subjective factors up to an instructor to grade. This makes the training and grading extremely fair and fast allowing for a high-level of the student throughput.
