Method and system for dynamically modifying visual rendering of a visual element in a computer generated environment from an interactive computer simulation is provided. Pre-defined visual characteristics are associated with the visual element. A tangible instrument module is used to provide one or more commands for controlling a simulated vehicle of the interactive computer simulation. At the interactive computer simulation station, dynamically affecting the visual element is performed by enhancing at least one of a visual contouring of the visual element and one or more pre-identified distinctive visual characteristics of the visual element. Tailoring parameters determined considering at least one of an identity of the trainee in the interactive computer simulation station and an identifier of the visual element are considering when dynamically affecting the visual element in real-time during execution of the interactive computer simulation prior to rendering the visual element for display.

Dynamically affecting tailored visual rendering of a visual element

Method and system for dynamically modifying visual rendering of a visual element in a computer generated environment from an interactive computer simulation. Pre-identified distinctive visual characteristics are associated with the visual element. A tangible instrument module is sued to provide one or more commands for controlling a simulated vehicle of the interactive computer simulation. At the interactive computer simulation station, dynamically modifying the one or more pre-identified distinctive visual characteristics of the visual element is performed considering at least a relative directional vector between the simulated vehicle and the visual element in the computer generated environment, the relative directional vector being determined in real-time during execution of the interactive computer simulation prior to rendering the visual element for display.

Dynamically modifying visual rendering of a visual element comprising pre-defined characteristics

Method and system for dynamically modifying, in an interactive computer simulation station, visual rendering of a visual element in a computer generated environment from an interactive computer simulation. Pre-defined visual characteristics comprise a visual contouring associated with the visual element. The method comprises receiving, via a tangible instrument module, one or more commands for controlling a simulated vehicle. The method also comprises dynamically affecting the visual contouring of the visual element considering at least one of a distance factor between the simulated vehicle and the visual element in the computer generated environment and a relative contrast between the pre-defined visual characteristics of the visual element and underlying computer generated environment elements. The distance factor and the relative contrast are determined in real-time during execution of the interactive computer simulation prior to rendering the visual element for display.

Dynamically modifying visual rendering of a visual element comprising a visual contouring associated therewith

A method and a display system for dynamically activating a night-vision mode. The display system comprises a processor module that further comprises an image generator module. The processor module is for determining at least a head position of a user in the display system, the head position being used at least for geometry-correction purposes and, while determining the head position, determining that a night-vision-enhancer device is activated by the user. The processor module is further for activating the night-vision mode of the display system and the image generator module, upon activation of the night-vision mode of the display system, renders night-vision-enhanced images of a computer generated environment for display. The night-vision-enhanced images present a night-mode-adapted wavelength spectrum.
