TRU Simulation is offering demos of its Veris VR (virtual reality) flight simulator this week at Verticon. The full-motion compact simulator replicates a Bell 505 and uses VR to provide a detailed view of the outside world.

This eliminates the need to attach an expensive and bulky visual system to the simulator while enabling realistic flight scenarios such as inclement weather and medevac scenes. Costing roughly 10 percent as much as a traditional full-flight simulator with a large visual system, the Veris’ footprint, including the six-degrees-of-freedom motion base, is just 7.3 by 6.85 feet.
