SIMONA research simulator
Themes: Aerospace, Robotics
Why?
SIMONA is a flexible test platform, able to realistically simulate vehicles from cars to aircraft and helicopters. It bridges the fidelity gap between theoretical studies and in-flight tests. Research focuses on advanced simulation technology and improving human-machine interaction in vehicles.
How?
Most hardware and software has been developed at the TU Delft, enabling easy modification for new applications. The movable cabin accommodates two crew members and is fitted with a wide-field-of-view outside visual system, programmable glass cockpit and active flight controls.
