A video game from $ 57 million There is a substantial virtual reality project underway at the U.S. military these days, based on using the CryEngine 3: it is called "dismounted Soldier Training System (DSTS)" and should lead to a and accurate representation of the "safe" of various war scenarios for the training of soldiers.
"What we are trying to do is to provide the infantry squads a good level of suspension of disbelief, and CryEngine 3 is the best gaming technology on the market today," said Floyd West, director of strategic programs of Intelligent Decisions, the company was responsible for building the simulator.
In practice, the system uses the Crytek engine to build the environments, with a particular technology, motion detection and visualization. The soldiers will have the special helmets with built-in screen that will allow a realistic and style virtual reality environment, while moving a motion detection system that mimics their movements.
Every soldier has a sort of backpack called "man wearable system" which is essentially a kind of portable PC custom built for the occasion. In this way, the infantry squad can experience activities in a setting that recreates a realistic battlefield, with total immersion in the scenery and attention to peripheral vision.
