Saab receives Rapid 3D Mapping order for Gripen simulators
Defence and security company Saab has received an order from FMV, the Swedish Defence Material Administration, for the delivery of 3-dimensional (3D) models to the Swedish Gripen simulators. The 3D-models will give the simulators a highly realistic visualisation model.
The 3D-models will be generated by the system Rapid 3D Mapping based on aerial images, developed by Saab.
"This is an important milestone that proves that 3D-models generated by our new product Rapid 3D Mapping can be used with excellent results for visualisation in simulators", says Ulf Hellberg, Head of Business Development within Saab's business area Dynamics.
"The 3D-models provides the customer with a more realistic solution compared to traditional ways of building visualisation models", says Magnus Brege, Marketing Director Rapid 3D Mapping.
The world-leading technology behind Rapid 3D Mapping, is a results of Saab's unique competence in image processing, navigation and systems integration resulting from the long experience in developing advanced systems for missiles.
