Exciting new VBS2 innovations by Bohemia Interactive, to be demonstrated at ITEC 09

8 April 2009 --[ASDWire]-- Bohemia Interactive is very excited to announce the imminent release of four new products, all of which will be demonstrated at ITEC this year. There are two new VBS2 modules, VBS2Fires and VBS2Fusion, and Bohemia Interactive is also now offering two new state-of-the-art game-based simulation solutions: the Call-For-Fire Trainer and Marksman MK1.

We at Bohemia Interactive have proven our ability to modify the latest in game-based technology to meet the military requirement, but these exciting new products take serious games to an entirely new level.

VBS2Fires – this innovative desktop Call-For-Fire training solution couples high fidelity indirect fire simulation with VBS2, delivering a realistic and flexible simulation that perfectly augments VBS2 as a tactical training tool. From practicing combined arms to training Offensive Support specialists; VBS2Fires is a very important and long-awaited capability enhancement for VBS2.
VBS2 Call-For-Fire Trainer (CFFT) – employing VBS2Fires and innovative hardware design, the CFFT provides cutting-edge training for Forward Observers through an immersive projection system and surrogate devices, at a fraction of the cost of similar systems.
VBS2 Marksman Mk1 – designed for marksmanship training, the Marksman Mk1 allows the use of unmodified live weapons for simulated training, through light-weight, ‘plug and play’ virtual reality technology. Don’t take your soldiers to a virtual range; take the virtual range to them!
VBSFusion – the most robust API released for VBS2 to date, VBS2Fusion provides unparalleled access to VBS2 internals and is perfectly suited to integrating external AI with the VBS2 platform. VBS2Fusion is being developed in several phases and the first version will be on display at ITEC.

At ITEC 09, Bohemia Interactive and partners will provide a convincing argument in favor of game-based simulation, proving that a networked VBS2 deployment provides an immersive, high-fidelity training solution at a fraction of the price of competing simulation products. Be sure to visit booth F130 and allow us to convince you of how game-based simulation can exceed your expectations.
