The MetaVR MUSE VRSG system provides the visualization system component for MUSE that generates synthetic payload scene video and/or imagery of the 3D battlefield with simulated target entities. more>   PC-Based Render Engine Multi-Channel PC Image Generator The synchronized multi-channel IG is the VRSG render engine with added support for MetaVR's multi-channel protocol. The UDP-based network interface enables your simulation model to control an unlimited number of VRSG channels. more> Viewpoint Protocol The multi-channel viewpoint protocol is a networked-based interface to the VRSG PC-based image generator. It enables a simulation host, running on a separate computer, to control an unlimited set of VRSG visual channels dedicated to that simulator. more> Forward Observer Laser Designator VRSG supports 3 or 6 degree-of-freedom position tracking technology from InterSense. This capability totally immerses users in a simulated world with either a handheld visual device or a head-mounted display. more> ROVER Device For fielding in JTAC simulation training facilities, VRSG works with ROVER devices. When the device is coupled with MetaVR's 3D visualization technology, VRSG generates the simulated 3D scene and the range and coordinates of a designated target on the device's monitor. more>
