Fujitsu develops world’s first full HD Train Simulator
Friday, May 9th, 2008
Fujitsu in collaboration with video game and simulator developer Ongakukan has developed the world’s first train simulation system using full high-definition video. Through its technical collaboration with video game and simulator developer Ongakukan, Fujitsu was able to develop variable-speed playback technology for high-definition video shot on actual train lines, the first use of this technology in a train simulator. The result is an unprecedented level of realism in train operation simulation, with accurate responses to the trainee-operator’s input and high image quality even with variable-speed playback. This gives trainees a better approximation of the operational environment to help improve their skill levels.
