AUGMENTED REALITY FOR VEHICLE OPERATIONS
Systems, methods, and computer products according to the principles of the present inventions may involve a training system for a pilot of an aircraft. The training system may include an aircraft sensor system affixed to the aircraft adapted to provide a location of the aircraft, including an altitude of the aircraft, speed of the aircraft, and directional attitude of the aircraft. It may further include a helmet position sensor system adapted to determine a location of a helmet within a cockpit of the aircraft and a viewing direction of a pilot wearing the helmet. The helmet may include a see-through computer display through which the pilot sees an environment outside of the aircraft with computer content overlaying the environment to create an augmented reality view of the environment for the pilot. A computer content presentation system may be adapted to present computer content to the see-through computer display at a virtual marker, generated by the computer content presentation system, representing a geospatial position of a training asset moving within a visual range of the pilot, such that the pilot sees the computer content from a perspective consistent with the aircraft's position, altitude, attitude, and the pilot's helmet position when the pilot's viewing direction is aligned with the virtual marker.

PROVIDING LOCALIZED JAMMING EFFECTS IN A TRAINING EXERCISE
A method for providing localized jamming effects includes using a processor onboard a vehicle to perform the steps of: receiving a jamming command to simulate a jamming effect on a particular sensor onboard the vehicle; and generating a jamming effect in a model of the particular sensor in response to the jamming command. The jamming effect in the model of the particular sensor simulates the jamming effect on the particular sensor being generated by an entity other than the vehicle.
IN-FLIGHT TRAINING SIMULATION DISPLAYING A VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT
Method and system for displaying virtual environment during in-flight simulation. A simulation environment is selected for a training simulation of an airborne platform operating in flight within a real environment. The position and orientation of a display viewable by an operator of the airborne platform is determined with respect to the selected simulation environment. The display displays at least one simulation image comprising a view from a virtual altitude of simulation environmental terrain in the selected simulation environment, while the airborne platform is in flight at a real altitude above the real environmental terrain in the real environment, the virtual altitude above the simulation environmental terrain being a lower altitude than the real altitude above the real environmental terrain. The simulation image is displayed in accordance with the determined position and orientation of the display, such that the simulation environment is adaptive to operator manipulations of the airborne platform.
