A
Pioneering Research and Development Project for Marine Training
Titan
Boats has collaborated with the Canadian Coast Guard Auxiliary to build
a world class marine training tool: the Fast Rescue Craft Simulator. In
a partnership with Transas Simulation, world leaders in vessel
simulation, we are creating an experience that
will simulate Marine Search and Rescue Operations. As well, a
simulation program has been developed to train both entry- level and
advanced navigation, pilotage, and small vessel operations. An
immersive training environment provides the operator with realistic
equipment, scenarios, and a graphical environment which resembles the
real world operations to the highest degree of physical realism in a
simulated environment.

The
Titan FRC simulator can be used to perform training in scenarios
considered too dangerous for live boat training
(severe weather
environments, equipment fault introductions, reduced visibility, etc)
in a safe, effective, and convenient
environment. This immersive
simulator includes: an accurate mathematical modeling of
vessel motion
and a mockup of an actual Titan FRC cabin, complete with real
vessel
controls and equipment for a truly realistic experience. Also, detailed
graphical models of the ownship vessel and target
vessels operate in a
representation of the Victoria to Sidney ocean environment
that
includes accurate depths, buoys, lights, and charted information. A
270° surround projection system displays the environment, and
environmental parameters are controlled by the instructor.
Completing
the immersive experience is a 5 speaker sound system providing
simulated engine and environmental noise.
The
simulated environment allows for the training of three
people
(a crew) in a closed cabin concept Titan Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat
(RHIB) mockup that emphasizes the responsibilities and
communication requirements of a three man crew in navigation and
emergency situations. Advanced training concepts such as positive
control, situational awareness, leadership, risk management, and
complex Search and Rescue missions are built into the upper level
simulator scenarios and courses. As well, customized scenarios for
multiple users are possible such as tactical missions, advanced
collision avoidance training, reduced visibility operations and more.
The
Titan/Coast Guard Auxiliary Fast Rescue Craft Simulator:
Extreme Conditions that call for Extreme Training Measures.
