Students from Russia’s Southern Federal University have created a virtual platform that simulates training with anti-drone weapons and detection systems.
Built using Unreal Engine, a game engine developed by Epic Games, the interactive simulator puts trainees in environments where they can practice navigating through battlefield scenarios with anti-drone guns modeled as exact digital copies of their real-world counterparts.
Radio signals, global positioning system (GPS) obstructions, and field devices are also simulated as close to reality as possible, providing soldiers a direct way of developing foundational skills without going to warzones.
