Boeing Picks Quantum3D

 Boeing will use Quantum3D’s Independence IDX 3000 Image Generation (IG) system for its C-17 Flight Hardware Simulator (FHS). The IDX 3000, the most recent model of Quantum3D’s Independence family of COTS, advanced, open-architecture IG services, will include a customer-specific simulation host interface. The Boeing FHS is used to check C-17 flight procedures, including takeoff, landing, aerial refueling, formation flying and air-to-air target tracking tasks. The FHS also provides evidence that basic flight control system functions are operating properly in the areas of control laws, annunciations, redundancy management and flight handling qualities. More
