FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Marietta GA, USA and Graz, Austria – Immersive Display Solutions, Inc. (IDSI) and Blackshark.ai will be displaying an Artificial Intelligence (AI) enhanced database on IDSI’s VisionFlex dvLED display at I/ITSEC 2024.
IDSI will collaborate with Blackshark.ai at I/ITSEC 2024 in Orlando, Florida from December 2nd to 5th to showcase their large-scale Synth3D digital twin on IDSI’s VisionFlex dvLED curved display. Blackshark.ai’s contextualized database includes photorealistic, geo-typical, and asset specific digital twin models along with highly detailed terrain models, real satellite imagery, and vegetation. Blackshark.ai’s geospatial platform uses AI to extract data about the planet’s infrastructure from current satellite and aerial imagery via AI machine learning allowing reconstruction of the Earth’s terrain, infrastructure, and cultural elements, including how lighting affects different environments across the globe. A cloud-computing capability enables rapid updates at any time. Sensor simulation and NVG setups are also possible thanks to an extensive and detailed asset library.
IDSI’s curved Direct View LED (dvLED) display surrounds the viewer in a life-like immersive environment demonstrating how dvLED is well suited for simulation and training environments. With its inherent high brightness, high contrast, and color accuracy, dvLED provides the viewer with a high level of visual fidelity in any time-of-day (TOD) setting. The Blackshark.ai content, with its high-fidelity imagery and its realistic physics based night-time cultural lighting is ideal content for dvLED. Users can pair the dvLED display system with IDSI’s Vision Manager (including our Unreal Engine plugin) for the flexibility to tune Unreal Engine’s TOD settings for optimal training conditions.
“Blackshark.ai’s innovative AI-based global digital twin technology is a new tool that enhances training realism for training content developers” said Andrew W. Jamison, VP of Sales of IDSI. “I/ITSEC is always a great venue to show new training capabilities that our industry can experience first-hand.”
“The VisionFlex dvLED display perfectly complements our high-precision, physics-based 3D terrain”, said Hannes Walter, VP Product 3D Simulation Environments at Blackshark.ai. “In training, it´s essential to reflect all real-world conditions as close as possible. If an object can barely be discerned by the human eye or a sensor it will be rendered just like that on this system.”
Immersive Display Solutions, Inc. (IDSI) is a solutions-based and services-oriented company that designs and integrates immersive training displays, including custom cylindrical, panoramic, and spherical projected display solutions and mixed-reality (MR) head mounted displays (HMD) for global commercial and government customers in the visualization, and simulation and training markets. IDSI is a leading supplier of immersive training visual display solutions for both military and industrial applications. IDSI has deployed more than 600 training display solutions since 2006.
Blackshark.ai provides a geospatial platform that extracts insights about the planet’s infrastructure from current satellite and aerial imagery via machine learning at global scale. Results can be used for visualization, simulation, mapping, mixed reality environments, and other enterprise solutions. This technology is used in fields such as: urban planning, architecture, and mixed-reality environments, allowing for precise visualizations that incorporate real-world lighting and environmental conditions.
