Standard and Optional Features

The following features are standard in FlightIG:
Large Area Database Management   Automatically pages in databases larger than can be contained in physical memory, and eliminates jitter that would otherwise occur as a result of single-precision rounding errors in the graphics pipeline when the eyepoint is far from the database origin.
Special Effects   Provides a wide variety of dynamic geometry and particle-based special effects, including fire, smoke, missile trails, and explosions.
Navigation and Signal Lighting   Manages light points and complex light systems.
Light Lobes   Simulates aircraft landing lights and taxi lights, with controllable lobe shape, intensity, and fall-off.

FlightIG can optionally be configured to include the following features:
Marine Effects   Renders special effects for flight operations over water and in littorals, including a dynamic three-dimensional ocean surface, bow waves and stern wakes for ships, floating buoys, and other effects.
Non-Linear Distortion Correction   Dynamically corrects distortion resulting from projection onto curved surfaces (including spherical, cylindrical, conical, and ellipsoidal domes), offset projection geometry, and geometry errors introduced by non-linear optics.
IR Simulation   Supports quantitative rendering of imagery from 0.4 to 14 um for short wave, mid wave, and thermal IR sensors.
NVG Simulation   Used in conjunction with a head-mounted display, like the n-Vision DataVisor NVG, FlightIG provides real-time effects to simulate night vision goggles, including automatic gain control, bloom, halos, temporal and fixed-pattern noise, scintillation, reflections in fresh water (with supporting modeling in the database), and occulting of illumination. Databases can be processed to show shadows.
NVG Stimulation   In conjunction with an NVG-compatible cockpit and display system, FlightIG provides complementary features to stimulate operational night vision goggles like the ITT F4949 (AN/AVS-9) goggles. These features include bloom, halos, reflections in fresh water, and occulting of illumination.
