BISim, DiSTI sign agreement
DiSTI Corporation has expanded its software VAR contract portfolio to include Bohemia Interactive Simulations (BISim) under an agreement announced on 13 January.
Under the agreement Bohemia will resell DiSTI Corporation’s GL Studio as an integrated Human Machine Interface (HMI) tool for its VBS4 virtual desktop trainer and simulation host.
VBS4 provides a comprehensive virtual desktop training environment with whole-earth rendering for tactical training, experimentation and mission rehearsal. The software performs as a simulation host for any image generator and offers a massive step-change in modularity, openness and ease-of-use.
Oli Arup, senior VP of product management, BISim, said: ‘DiSTI is highly regarded as a world leader in simulated instrumentation, and we’re pleased to be able to offer sample instruments to customers in future versions of VBS4 as well as a route for customers to add highly detailed instrumentation.’
