Historic Space Systems now offers simulation software to complement our exhibits.
We put the same passion for realism and historical accuracy found in our high fidelity exhibits, into realistic simulations
with your visitors in command!
This is how we make our software-based simulations (see photos):
We create a detailed computer model of the spacecraft using actual spacecraft
engineering drawings.
We combine many detailed photographs of the spacecraft and other surfaces to
make a realistic finish for the model.
When the finish is applied to the model it looks identical to the real
spacecraft.
Views through the hatch window are realistic since the model is based on the
actual blueprints. (The simulation is actually viewing through the hatch window of the model.)
Simulation authoring software brings life to the models. Movement, lighting, physical reactions, and other
elements are programmed into the simulation. The result is a feeling of being there.
We can use this same technique to make your next exhibit. The simulation software can be
integrated into an enclosure (as we have done with other simulations) or a simple kiosk. Contact us to discuss your needs.
