Challenge

Bell's Future Flight Controls program required a flexible and portable solution to collect significant research data in their pursuit of redefining flight. They needed a research platform that would enable the general public to undergo realistic flight simulators with various flight control sticks, allowing for data comparison.

The challenge was to create a software solution that would accurately represent the aircraft's flight and also provide an enjoyable and challenging experience to keep participants engaged.

Solution

Sector 5 Digital, a subsidiary of the Glimpse Group, accepted the challenge and developed a platform that enabled the general public to undergo realistic flight simulators with different flight control sticks for data comparison.

S5D designed the software to integrate the customer's flight model data, providing an accurate representation of the aircraft's flight. The simulator offered a distinctive and immersive experience that was both informative and entertaining.

Outcome

The flight simulators provided Bell with a flexible and portable solution to collect critical research data for their Future Flight Controls program.

S5D's full-motion simulator was a groundbreaking approach to training and simulation, taking the experience to the next level for Bell and their Future Flight Controls program. The gamified approach also proved to be highly popular with participants, keeping them engaged and invested in the experience.
