Platinum Simulators is developing a new add-on to its Professional Helicopter Simulator that will allow night-vision goggles (NVG) training. This new add-on will consist of a head-mounted device (HMD) that will represent the outside night view and the NVG view. The HMD will allow pilots to “look around” the NVG as well as see the cockpit, gauges, radios, and themselves.

For longline training, the HMD will allow pilots to see around and underneath the helicopter as well as the cockpit, gauges, radios, and themselves.

This HMD can also be retrofitted to existing Platinum or FLYIT Professional Helicopter Simulators.
