CATI Training Systems
CATI
CATI Training Systems is a visual technology solutions company delivering technical expertise and operational support to a wide range of customers including the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, International civil and military customers, government agencies and the commercial aviation industry. CATI provides leading edge Image Generation and visual solutions on 100% COTS hardware, significantly reducing both acquisition and lifecycle operating costs. Our engineering and modeling staff is experienced in providing end to end solutions for any simulation training application. CATI products are currently supporting DOD and FAA/JAA accredited devices and laboratories worldwide.
CATI designs and develops complete physics-based virtual visual environments to support today's demanding requirements for sensors (IR and NVS), tactical operations, decision making, high- fidelity realism while creating an immersive synthetic environment. We additionally provide expertise in production of high resolution correlated synthetic visual, sensor and SAF 3D terrain databases. Where virtual reality in training is not to be compromised, CATI is without par in delivering the largest amount of fully accredited terrain databases and IG systems to US Army Aviation and the U.S. Coast Guard among others.
PC Based Image Generator
CATI's image generation software solutions are the ideal choice for the visualization of simulation training systems. Utilizing 100% Commercial off the Shelf (COTS) PC-based hardware and software, CATI’s X-IG™ and X-100™ image generator technologies provide unparalleled rendering performance through advanced software algorithms and optimizations
|
Visual systems built on CATI's X-100™ Image Generator are capable of meeting proposed FAA/JAA Level C/D standards for realism and details. |
CATI's image generation solutions provide complete real-time physics-based modeling including atmospheric and weather effects, night-vision goggles, Day-TV, and FLIR simulations. CATI's libraries of special effects complement the image generator, enhancing specific training tasks, providing a fully immersive training environments.
100 Percent COTS Solutions
CATI provides comprehensive engineering support in real-time image generation software design and optimization, visual systems integration and human in-the-loop simulation integration. Easy-to-use control pages and an Application Programming Interface (API) that provides you with instantaneous control over all image generator parameters such as illumination, environmental, sensors and other functions as required for a high fidelity simulator.
CATI's 100% COTS PC-based systems are designed around industry-standard hardware and software tools which provide you the ability to minimize your total cost of ownership (TCO).
PC Based Image Generator
Approximately 300 million square kilometers of high-fidelity databases produced by CATI are in training today by the Army, Navy, USCG and commercial airlines. |
CATI adds visual realism and accuracy to training
systems with the utilization of real world imagery and photo specific buildings and references.
Our experience in the Database Production & 3D Modeling of correlated synthetic visual, sensor and SAF 3D terrain databases is beyond compare, supplying 52 percent of Visual Databases Used in US Army Aviation training today.
Over last 4 years CATI database & modeling production facility has completed and delivered 23 correlated databases comprising of almost 300 million square kilometers of training capable virtual terrain. The US Army has benefited the greatest with the delivery of 18 high fidelity 100% imagery based, photo-specific airfields for Lift Simulator Modernization Program (LSMP), Additional Black Hawk Flight Simulators (ABHFS), Transportable Blackhawk Operations Simulator (TBOS), and Flight School XXI (FSXXI).
