VE Studio® Deliverables

VE Studio® utilizes the best development workflow practices, combining them with innovative tools and components to create complex virtual training applications seamlessly while minimizing the production and training costs in the process. The DiSTI Corporation’s VE Studio® allows users to:

Design The Training

  • Analyze the project requirements and import written procedures directly into the Fidelity Matrix, saving months of manual recreation.
  • Users can build a database of known word object pairs on the go. Additionally, users can make modifications to the Source data easily.

Manage Content

  • Create a relational database that connects models to behaviors, procedures to lessons, and other data shared within the system.
  • Access the easy-to-use database editor that simplifies content management & editing with a complete API allowing third-party applications to write and read directly to the database.
  • Simplify project creation and content addition to the system during the early stages of development via wizards; users can get up and running with a working prototype within thirty minutes.

Build The Virtual Model

  • Use VE Studio®’s built-in model import wizards or import directly .FBX models into Unity.
  • Connect 3D models with their database-associated behavior automatically.

Author & Manage Lessons

  • Users can access the comprehensive IOS application allowing them to control the lesson creation and real-time assignment monitoring and student interaction, and after-action debriefing in the classroom.
  • Assign lessons, manage class data, monitor progress, mirror student screens, and take remote control to help students improve their skills and knowledge retention.
  • Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and instructors can use drag and drop editing to create lesson scenarios with the ability to develop autoplay, tutorial, practice, and assignment lessons by performing and recording actions directly in the virtual classroom.

Construct Simulations

  • Build custom-defined real-life-based simulations bringing virtual training models to life.
  • The Sim Engine drives object states, animations, and audio to create dynamic schematics that immerse the user in the virtual environment.

Reinforce Skills

  • Review a student’s assessment by accessing their statistics and performance every step of the way.
  • Use AI to observe and alter training branches based on the students’ performances.
