Display Solutions, Inc in Stow, MA announced today that it has recently completed a 14-channel visual display system for the New Ship Bridge Docking Simulator, a major project at the Marine Pilots Institute (MPI) in Covington, LA. The visual system included the selection of visual components, their location and installation. Display Solutions designed and installed the 14- channel visual system to achieve maximum dome coverage with minimum cost. The docking simulator consists of a "typical" ship bridge positioned in the center of a 28' diameter dome. The visual system uses Sanyo LCD projectors to produce a 300-degree HFOV x 90-degree VFOV image on the dome screen surface. The extended VFOV provides "lookdown" visual display for ship docking training. The 14-visual channels are geometry corrected and edge blended both horizontally and vertically using 3-D Perceptions video warping processors. The MPI dome simulator is the first ship bridge simulator to provide "look-down" capability for docking exercises.
