ARI's Warship Simulator has been designed to facilitate training in ship handling, maneuvering and decesion making on naval warships in an environment that offers all the complexities of the real world without any of the associated dangers, risk and costs.
ARI has been developing world-class simulators for more than a decade and our products are internationally recognized as 'best of breed' for their robustness, behavioral accuracy and unsurpassed quality of visualization. Our simulators are designed from the ground up to leverage our software & hardware expertise, deep domain knowledge and design talent and our products are comprehensively backed up by proven and dependable technical support and after sales services.
The ARI Full Mission Warship Simulator provides detailed simulations of a comprehensive range of the features unique to naval vessels and accurately simulates the ship handling characteristics of a wide variety of naval ships including destroyers, frigates, missile ships, offshore patrol vessels and more. Bridge equipment, specific to naval vessels, is ergonomically built and arranged in a manner that provides the total look and feel of a naval ship in motion. High fidelity visual display systems and rigorously modled 3-dimensional scenes provide a completely immersive and believable environment for the hands-on training of naval personnel.
Our naval simulators have an extensive library of exercise areas available, from which the user can choose specefic scenarios for a given training exercise. Our area libraries are continuously updated and added to, and newly released areas can be easily procured and installed into the simulator. We also offer a complete customization service with our naval simulation products, and can develop specific exercise areas for the exclusive use of individual naval customers.
We have a fully certified and very strong security system in place guaranteeing the safety and confidentiality of sensitive data in our custody.
Upgrades are a way of life. New equipment is modeled; enhanced funtionality is created; new features are added; and software updates and upgrades are produced from our Delhi simulation development centre on a continuous basis. All naval customers are given the option to upgrade their existing systems on a priority basis as soon as such upgrades are released.
ARI offers a number of 'Train the Trainer' programs where our simulation training expert(s) can provide extensive training to your trainers and faculty, conduct pilot course, assist in the writing of training material, create training videos and assist you in numerous other ways to derive the maximum potential from your simulator.
All can create a library of ship models that conform to the behavioral characteristics and appearnce of warships in your own fleet. As with all naval cutomers, the confidentiality and integrity of your data is fully protected at ARI.
ARI gives you the choice to "build-and-grow" your simulator investment as you go. Using the completely modular design to your advantage, you have the freedom to start with a smaller installation and grow it to any size that suits your developing requirements. Expansion possibilities are extensive and can include the addition of more equipment; increasing the field of view(right up to 360 degrees of "total immersion"); integration with other ARI simulators; upgrading to enhanced computers; changing to newer and more technologically advanced display devices. You can even link multiple simulator installations over large distances to create composite simulators that can operate missions together at simulation facilities that are gegrophically distant from one another. This upgrade and enhancement capability allows you to continue to get a better return on investment made into the simulation solution over a very long period of time.
ARI offers naval simulation customers a large range of options for equipment, systems and subsystems to choose from and our simulators can be delivered with an exact replica of the equipment and systems present on your own vessel bridges. Standard feature configurations include RADAR(s), electronic chart systems, speed log(s), GPS, depth sounder, ship maneuvering and conning systems, bearing measurement systems, communication subsystems, GMDSS simulation systems and a range of other bridge equipment. We can additionally supply weapons firing control systems and other warfare specific features catering to the demands of specific vessel types.
Whilst clients can choose from our existing open market library of systems and subsystems, we can also model your own particular equipment and systems to your exact specificifications on a turnkey basis, and for your own exclusive use. Our designers have deep domain knowledge and will work with your experts to deliver the precise funtionality you need.
ARI simulation solutions are deisgned to be modular, making it possible to create a simulated bridge environment very similar to the way a client's specific vesse;s are designed. We have designed and installed a large number of naval bridge simulators, each with its own unique layout and appearance. ARI's expert design teams are also available to bring their extensive experience to assist our clients in designing optimal solutions for their requirements.
The visual system for the ARI Warship Simulator uses cutting edge 3D graphics effects including smoke, motion blurring, colored fog, anti-aliasing, dynamic lighting, fully animated textures, multi texturing, MIP mapping, tri-linear filtering, 24bit Z-Buffering and other visual technologies that combine to provide a rich, immersive and ultra realistic simulation environment
Our simulators are designed to be completely independent of any particular type of display devices, allowing clients to select their own preffered display architecture. We have installed bridges based on projection systems, large plasma display panels and large LCD panels, When combined with our simulator bridge environments these technologies all yield a truly stunning sense of realism. ARI designers and engineers can guide clients in the selection of a display hardware system which will most optimally meet their specific requirements.
ARI remains with you every step of the way with our comprehensive and internationally proven warranty, maintenance and upgrade programs; our "Train the Trainer" post installation programs that help your intructors to extract the very best from the equipment at their disposal, and an internet and telephone support network that is available for your queries and clarifications. We also offer a range of compelling commercial models - designed to meet customer budgets and structures - including subscriptions, leases and tailored commercial package.
