A tool for modelling 3D Realtime Virtual Environments

Lumo Builder is a solid solution for construction and maintenance of geospecific and geotypical terrain databases. In the production workflow, it fits in seamlessly between polygon-based 3D modeling and pre-processing tools for the simulation environment. It is a proven tool for terrain databases and already in use in Driving Simulators and Tactical Engagement Trainers.

Simulation environments always up-to-date with re-lion's Lumo Builder

		re-lion will provide the Dutch Army with a specifically modified version of Lumo Builder to keep their simulation environments for VBS2, Steel Beasts Pro and the Saggitarius Small Arms Trainer up-to-date. Modifications are made in a program known as 'NTP Landscape' that is financed by the Defence Material Organisation. Landscape will enable instructors to take control over the simulation environment by providing an innovative, easy to use, human machine interface (HMI). Landscape also standardizes the content generation pipeline for simulation environments within the Dutch Army and gives users the ability to get an overview of content already present within the organization.
The open architecture supports a wide range of simulator types, as training needs vary across the different units within the Dutch Army. Both geospecific as well as geotypical simulation environments can be maintained, with a high amount of detail outdoors and indoors. TNO Defence, Security and Safety gather the user requirements, provide consultancy and support, deliver a prototype application for rapid creation of geotypical environment as a plug-in for Landscape and conduct the usability tests with the Dutch Army. VBS2 is a serious game used in desktop training for (dismounted) infantry at the Dutch Army. VBS2 is trademark of Bohemia Interactive Australia. Steel Beasts Pro is a serious game used in desktop training for armoured fighting vehicles at the Dutch Army. Steel Beasts Pro is a trademark of eSim Games. The Saggitarius Small Arms Trainer is a simulator used by the Dutch Army to train weapon skills. Saggitarius is a trademark of the Thales Group.

Lumo Builder in C,mm,n Car driving simulator

Tuesday, 24 March 2009 00:00

The University of Twente and re-lion are working on a driving simulator for the ‘Car of the Future’ using Lumo Builder and Lumo Drive in which future mobility is explored.

Lumo Builder is used to rapidly develop new virtual environments that will be used with Lumo Drive for research and demonstration purposes. Key features of Lumo Builder are easy terrain generation with DTED and GeoTIFF import, high-detail procedural road networks including intersections and a correlated view on visuals, AI and collision databases.
