Image: Simulator.JPG
Size : scaled to 704x512 (square pixels) from 1990x1360

This image shows a flight simulator, being build by the Faculty of
Aerospace Engineering of the Delft University of Technology in the
Netherlands.  It's going to be used for basic research of stability and
control of civil airliners, helicopters, cars and ships (in order of
importancy).  It's nice to know for us Amiga fans that the basic design and
visualisation is done in Imagine, by the project leader and me on my
A4000/040. I'm busy with a animation of the simulator motion with the data
directly out off the control software of the platform. This for checking
the boundaries and interference of the actuators (the hydraulic tubes) with
the fuselage, which center of gravity is very low in this simulator (the 
first of its kind).
The picture was taken on the Markt of Delft in Holland, I live behind the
Townhouse.  It was scanned with a HP ScanJet and composited with an Imagine
trace in PhotoShop. With the new perspective-edit mode of Imagine2.9 you
can place things much more accurate in real photos (vectorized first)
than before.  Once you have the right angles and lens focal length you can
place your object anywhere by translating over the local axis and that
interactively.  Cool.  
The picture was 1990x1360 pixels (enough for rasterizing 150 lines/inch to
separate color-plates for printing a fullcolor card) so I scaled it down to
704x512 en JPEG'ed it. It has square pixels, it's no NTSC picture, PAL however
is close enough.
