Abstract

The Aviation and Missile Research, Engineering, and Development Center (AMRDEC) of the US Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM) has an extensive history of applying all types of modeling and simulation to weapon system development and has been a particularly strong advocate of hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) simulation and test for many years. Key to the successful application of HWIL testing at AMCOM has been the use of state-of-the-art IR Scene Projector technologies. This paper describes recent advancements within the AMRDEC Advanced Simulation Center HWIL facilities with a specific emphasis on the sate of the various IRSP technologies employed. Included in these IRSP technologies are the latest Honeywell and Santa Barbara IR emitter arrays, the DMD-based IR projectors, and the laser diode array projector.
