Virtual Learning Lab Includes UAV Demonstrations, Simulators, Crash Lab
Visitors to the Naval Base Ventura County Point Mugu Air Show 2015 will get an exclusive glimpse inside the world of unmanned systems (“drones”), flight training and an aviation virtual learning lab as part of the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University mobile interactive exhibit.
The 53-foot trailer known as the Embry-Riddle Experience will include unmanned aircraft demonstrations, aviation and unmanned simulators, a virtual crash lab and information about the university’s more than 75 degree programs, with presentations on how Embry-Riddle students, staff and faculty are leading the way into the future of aerospace and aviation.
Simulators in the Embry-Riddle Experience provide a variety of fixed-wing, rotary and multirotor aircraft models in realistic operating settings such as airfield and steep soaring slope locales in the bayou, desert and mountains.
Another unique feature of the Embry-Riddle Experience is the Virtual Crash Lab (VLAB), which was developed in conjunction with the university’s Aircraft Accident Investigation curriculum and is designed to allow participants to interactively inspect a crashed commercial aircraft. Operators can move and survey the crash site with the use of Oculus Goggles.
Also scheduled is an appearance by world-renowned aerobatic performer Matt Chapman flying the newly debuted Embry-Riddle Extra 330LX. He joins a performer lineup that includes Sean D. Tucker, the U.S. Army parachute team the Golden Knights, the CAF SoCal Warbirds, the Breitling Jet Team from France and the U.S. Navy Blue Angels.
