Cobra Simulation® announces a partnership with US firm The Elumenati to handle new projects in the Military/ Simulation markets. This combines Cobra's deep knowledge of simulation applications with proven Elumenati immersive technologies. Cobra Simulation® has delivered simulation solutions to many sectors worldwide, with clients including BAE Systems, Airbus, SAAB Avionics and MBDA Systems. Its 1.8m Panorama recently gained JALO accreditation as part of a portable JTAC (Joint Terminal Attack Controller) training system delivered by Nautilus International Consultants for the UKMOD.
The Elumenati are leaders in the field of immersive technologies, bringing decades of experience to designing and deploying immersive environments for clients from NASA to DreamWorks. Cobra's product line includes solutions based on The Elumenati's patented OmniFocus® fisheye projection systems, OpenDome® spherical displays, and suite of software solutions.
The Elumenati have been working with Cobra since 2013, when the Elumenati Cobra Panorama joined their line of turnkey GeoDome® Solutions. Based on Cobra’s 1.8m Curved Screen and mirror optics, it offers immersion and interactivity at an accessible price point which include exhibits at Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum and the Orlando Science Centre.
Both companies have collaborated heavily on software recognising the gap in the market for simple effective dome software solutions alongside an expanding immersive sector. The companies are continuing to develop and expand on its suite of software. Some of Cobra’s installs have been enhanced greatly since 2014 when both OmniMap® and Omnity 2.0® where fully integrated with the Cobra True Dimension® warping software. This integration extended the quality of the visual and provided 1-1 mapping alongside camera manipulation with the client’s applications.
