Microsoft Simulation Solutions
You can now create visual simulations that are robust, accurate, and agile—and you can create them quickly and cost efficiently.
 

Imagine giving first responders scenario-specific training in advance of a hurricane touching ground, simulating security details for a motorcade route, analyzing potential detours for road construction projects, giving search and rescue teams the opportunity to rehearse a recovery mission, or preparing law enforcement officers for a raid. Technology has long held the potential to create realistic, three-dimensional simulations—at a significant cost.

Today, you can create visual simulations that are robust, accurate, and agile—and you can create them quickly and cost efficiently. In the first implementation of these new capabilities, Microsoft and Northrop Grumman have married the Microsoft ESP visual simulation platform, Microsoft Virtual Earth mapping software, and the Microsoft Surface tabletop multi-touch display to create an accurate and highly detailed flight simulator that gives military route and mission planners the ability to create immersive fly-through mission rehearsals. These simulations give pilots more than a realistic rehearsal of their mission. They also offer the agility to adapt flight and convoy routes quickly based on terrain and on positions of friendly and adversarial forces.

The potential uses for Microsoft simulation solutions are almost limitless. And future versions of the Microsoft ESP platform are expected to expand beyond aviation, ground, and maritime operations, to interior buildings, floors, and rooms using avatar-centric simulations.

Using the latest visual simulation technologies from Microsoft, you can:

  • Better prepare your personnel for whatever situation they may face by giving them the experience of an immersive world for dynamic, engrossing, and memorable training that can be replayed and analyzed.
  • Create high-quality simulations in less time by starting from the rich content that comes with Microsoft ESP—including the platform's model of planet Earth, built-in physics engine, numerous aircraft types, scenery and terrain, and a fully configurable weather system.
  • Develop and deploy custom simulations on the familiar Windows platform that can be run on Windows-based personal computers—even remotely—quickly and cost effectively.

Microsoft and Northrop Grumman can help you design simulation-based solutions for your most pressing agency needs. Contact the Simulation Solutions team today to get started.

If it’s vital to government, it’s mission critical to Microsoft.
