A look under the hood

Unigine: The powerhouse of our NAUTIS maritime simulator

Several years ago, we decided to give our valued NAUTIS maritime simulator a complete overhaul. In cooperation with top management, our development team took several new engines into consideration. After studying the different options thoroughly, we decided on the cutting-edge UNIGINE 2 Sim engine for the development of the new, future-oriented NAUTIS 3.

UNIGINE enabled our developers to create every facet of the environments, water, and objects in a true-to-life manner.In addition to breath-taking visuals, the engine makes the creation of large high fidelity environments possible. The integration of innovative hardware like the Oculus Rift and seamless projection screens into NAUTIS is made easy by the engine.

Events

Conferences & exhibitions

Recently, the FDIC International 2018 conference took place in Indianapolis, United States. Our valued US partner, FAAC, once again attended the conference to showcase a wide variety of simulators, including our incident command simulator RescueSim. The conference took place from the 23rd of April until the 28th of April.

On a final note, VSTEP has several conferences on its radar in the coming months. We would love to hear from all our clients who are considering demonstrating their RescueSim or NAUTIS simulator. It would be our pleasure to highlight your attendance and your plans on our social media channels.
