US Military's $19M, 4500HP, 6 Axis, Aircraft Motion Simulator: KRAKEN Disorientation Device
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- In this video, take a up-close look of Naval Medical Research Unit Dayton’s Disorientation Research Device, “The Kraken.”
"At 245,000 pounds, 4,500 horsepower, simultaneous motion on six axis, sustained planetary motion of 3G, and horizontal travel to 16.5 feet, the Kraken will allow researchers to create the most realistic motion simulations never before imagined - except by perhaps one person - the pioneering physician, Navy Capt. Ashton Graybiel, who dared to imagine the physiologic impacts of motion and acceleration on the human body, said Navy Capt. Rees Lee, NMRU-D commanding officer.
"The Disorientation Research Device, together with the human centrifuge and hyperbaric chamber at the 711th Human Performance Wing will set Wright-Patterson Air Force Base as the center of acceleration research in the nation," said Lee.
The Kraken is a mystical creature from the deep whose tentacles twist and toss its victims until they don't know which way is up. Naval Medical Research Unit Dayton, stationed at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, is using its own Kraken not to destroy but to save lives.
See how this monster from the depths is working to protect American aviators. Video Include footages of the device and military personnel who operate, maintain and program the device.

6 axis rig - $18,999,700.00
HOTAS - $299.50
Flight Simulator Software - $0.45
Barf Bag - $0.05
You forgot half of it. Half of the "controller"
That pretty much sums it up
They spend 10M to pay that hacker who stolen my old project. That the reason why they don't know how to use it. 😠
They should combine this with VR.
more 450$ for the HOTAS Warthog
looks like they spent all their money on the cockpit and couldn't afford a decent computer to run microsoft flight sim 2000 lol
@@MirzaKhalid :-DDDD
i think its ORBITER Space Flight Simulator. if its nasa.
Probably "lagging" because the software running the contraption is saying it is behind where the simulator is?
Or a pair of rudder pedals.
Hahahaha
19 Mil for the hardware and 10 dollars for the sim software from the 1980s. Sounds like the military.
😂😂😂
It's better for them to install DCS than this crappy shit
They're better of buying DCS software.
@DefinitelyNotDan Hate to break it to you, but hyper-realistic graphics are useless in a simulator. The software is centered around the physics, not being the next AAA title to razzle and dazzle 12 year olds.
Oleg Yeah these people are retarded for thinking that good GUI = well running, robust programming.
19 million bucks....and they couldn't contact NVIDIA, Bohemia Interactive, and the makers of DCS to come up with better lifelike graphics...wow. they got hosed. Either that or somebody's friend or relative has their hands in the cookie jar. WINK WINK.
19000000000
Dcs is from russia
@@barrywik0019 It's not DCS. It's P3D which is a military and civilian academic simulator that's also been released to the general public. Built by Lockheed Martin.
@@JOEM747 "and the makers of DCS"
do you not see all of that machinery? think about the technology needed to get that machinery to work perfectly like that. that software is obviously something that they have been using for a long time. they can easily use a different simulator when it is designed to work with the machinery perfectly.

Was thinking oh, They got a good deal if this was ONLY 19 million. Considering what they pay for other things. Then I saw the graphics.
When they bought this thing, P3D (lockeed modified Flight Simulator X) was top-of-the-line commercial flight sim software.
They just haven't updated it in 10 years, it does the job as is.
Me 2, 19 million is reasonable price for rich kids to have it at home...
worst that game graphics today huh...
Ikr
Machine for 19M Dollar. And 25dollar for FSX steam Edition
People can't comprehend how beautiful that machine is. There are lots of mathematical physics equations and control theory working on that gyro. It's intense how the theory is working in it. The last minutes of this video worth gold when the technicians have to deal with the programming, engineering and maintenance. It's exactly there that the viewer comprehends the complexity of it.
Reminds me of that thing in the movie Contact.
The best thing here is the math about the physics aspect is beautifully simple. The hard part is the PID control and all the filtering shit to control the motors.
$19m for the simulator and $20 for the graphics card.
And the graphics of the simulator is better than the simulator graphics. 2:27
When you spent all your money just in your case, keyboard and mouse but your PC still sucks.
Hahahahahaha
It’s definitely can NOT run Crysis.

Cannot

When you spend all of your money on the rig but forget to buy the game.
U.S. citizens: we want medical insurance.

make0urday66 imagine being entitled to medical insurance
Given the cost of the F18 this pilot gets trusted with, 19 million (over like 10 years, this thing isn't new) for training equipment isn't too bad.
That isn't to say that the military doesn't straight up loose more money then UBI and Universal healthcare would cost, they do that twice over. Not so much with this thing.
UBI but you can’t choose you own doctor
Get a job
@@kingofburgundy6323 Imagine being one of the few nations with a medical system so backwards that your health can bankrupt you and your family
I’ve worked on this. My last company built it. Pretty cool to see.
Does it simulate actual G forces?
@@Rio.Motel.84 yea, up to 9 G’s I believe on that one. They used that high of Gs for research. That specific one was for the navy and it was for flight recovery and disorientation.
This with DCS world and it's perfect
With VR
Those graphics...look like a mobile game!
Why aren't they using P3D?
Because its probably more important how the plane flies and not how it looks. And maybe its easier to integrate x-plane into this total system. It looks like they are using XP9 or 10. They could switch to XP11 which looks a lot better.
This machine is meant to simulate the motion and feeling of a fighter jet moving around in the sky, and less of a full on simulator game. As well as the processing requirements needed to actually keep the sim, the machine, and the spectator console all connected at the same time. But yeah, it could be nicer.
I bet the hardware/software for the rig is one supplier and the cockpit flight sim isn't supplied, so that's another supplier or that supplier doesn't exist. So they probably just loaded the cheapest flight sim that had APIs.
They are not going to spend their limited budget on making a pretty sim.
It's a modified version of P3d.
Why DCS isn’t used is beyond me?!! It’s the perfect setup for DCS.
cause dcs is full of bugs
@@Altrote100 pay ED enough and give them the missing resources they need and they could build a perfect standalone simulator product. Similar to what they did for the A-10C before it became DCS World
That plane is not in DCS, and from I have heard their SDK is not openly available. Meaning there is a very limited pool of people that develop for the platform. Making me think the only real way the platform would be picked is through connections to the members who made the choices for this project. Arguably the platform they choose they are running at minimal settings since x-plane (based off cockpit, terrain, airport "objects") did not have to look that bare in 2017. But for them, it looks like they went with a minimum viable product, and DCS is far from the minimum.
Bottle -RUM they wouldn’t use DCS even if they could. They have a government and military focused version though called. TBS though and out of the 19 million spent they could have spent 20 grand on a sweet hardware setup and licensing for that..
MR ANDERSON interesting how all sims have the public facing on then a private/contract/certifiable equivalent!
This would fit in my living room, go ahead and bring it over.
👽 I just ordered 2 of these from Amazon prime next day delivery. I’m so excited for when they arrive.

And doesn’t even have an actual cockpit
And after all this research they finally figured out that tumbling in a dryer makes you dizzy
System 19M$ 😎

Equipment : $19 millions
The PC and flight sim : $0.01
😅😅😅
For those of you that's wondering, all of this equipment is being run by an Arduino UNO Starter Kit. That's why the graphics is not the best.
Dear santa...
lmao
No.
Santa : Shut up kid!
Did I hear someone say, "I could give you a black hole approach, if you'd like?"
$19m on hardware.
And $29.99 on flight simulator 1999
1:34 19M$ but it does not run in full screen mode! LOL
Glad to see Microsoft Flight Simulator 95 still in action today
19 million for this is a bargain beyond belief. Really impressive engineering.
Yes, if I would win a lottery I would buy this asap
How frequently threy clean up whole internal cabin? :)
3:15. time to pull ejuction seat.
$19M is a very good price for this hardware and software!
The point of the device isn't flight training, so the visuals of the sim don't matter. It's to study the differences in pilot performance (ability to turn, roll, stay in level flight...) when their inner-ear cues contradict their visual cues.
So you're saying pilots need to learn foresight?
That is 100% not what the sim is about literally AT ALL wtf. You have to be stupid lmao. It is definitely a training device used to teach the pilots how to handle flight situations while enduring G-force pressure. What you said was so dumb. Just some dumb ass shit
19M motion rig, single monitor
WoW I wanna Drive that too💪💪💎💎
19 mill and they use a TM Warthog HOTAS, love it!
They were hoping nobody would notice and try to recreate this in their basement
1:14 19M$ and still have some Lags??? 🤦♀️🤦🤦
Add VR with eye tracking and you have the final simulator
X-System, so it's X-plane. But Damn, X-Plane 3?!
what this video does not explain is that when that machine starts moving all of the axis at once it simulates the SPEED even if flying straight. it pins you to the seat for real
You DON'T simulate speed since what you feel is the acceleration. Nobody feels speed my friend.
It's like a GIGANTIC PRINTER (only if you've seen one from inside) 😂😂
Needs a VR helmet ams and atleast FSX with some mods 🤣
i’ve had this idea for a while, annoying it’s already been done. was thinking about how usual simulators can only do 1g of force cause of gravity so thought about a cockpit that can rotate on all axis and move up and down a centrifuge arm to recreate a large range of forces.
Yup I also been wondering and got a prototype
1:14 laggg
19M$ and such embarrassing low graphics? :D I know it's all about Systeme deep and physics etc. but come on it should be also something for the Eyes! How in the hell can you get psychological immersed then? I think that this is also enormous important.
It's a lot easier then you think to get immersed into it, I visited the f18 simulator at nas oceana, it diddnt move around but it had a actual cockpit surrounded with screens all around it so you could see above, below and on both sides of you
Beautiful..god bless you thanks...
Come on guys.. you spent 19 million on a simulator, then skimped on the graphics display?
You'd think for the 19mil they spent on it, that it would have better graphics and frame rate...
The graphics could have more definition but otherwise WOW!! What a machine!!
Loved working on these massive machines.
VR at its finest
But can it run...
DCS?
This is exactly what I thought we need to travel in space at light speed. To brake and accelerate without hurting the crew .
I saw some lag there... increase your ram from 1tb to 2 tb....lol
You mean from 256mb to 512mb
Imagine running DCS with VR in this beauty.
Can I use it to play Warthunder?
It's a Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS!
Thrustmaster must be proud. What a good sale for them.
Guys were can i buy one i searched on amazon but could not find one im planing to put one in my office
Damm this thing even aimulates Gravity
Those who do real sims know: Nice graphics are optional. This is what I‘d get if I won in Powerball 😊
Pilots flying these say to each other... I know it feels real but just look at the graphics and remember it’s the sim.
Would like to try this on an EMPTY stomach.
19m dollars with just one screen, wow. That screen must be multi millions. Well done.
Love the motion aspect. I wonder if they'll consider using a VR headset to give you full immersion instead of a projector screen. They might also want to switch over to xplane 11 for more accurate flight dynamics and overall just a better simulation of reality.
I think the simulator uses specialized software, probably more realistic in that sense that xplane etc.
@@Bobby11 ^ 👌👌
dcs world maybe, not xplane
For a moment the thumbnail made me think Stargate was real
Wouldn't the lag/fame drops distract the pilot? I know they would to me if I'm trying to concentrate on flying
It's not really meant to be a flight simulator, it's meant to get pilots used to spacial disorientation and getting knocked around in the cockpit.
Frame rate of the camera vs. the monitors could be off, ever seen footage of helicopters flying where it looks like the rotors aren't spinning?
Same kind of thing I imagine, 🍻
@@KumaBean considering it is military tech, I would venture to bet that it is lag. We used a simulator for infantry fighting when I was in and it was horrible. The equipment was trash and the software's resolution/framerate and graphocs looked identical to this. Military grade = trash.
CYN3RGY Oh, ok, that's kinda shocking to be honest, 🍻
The 19M budget ran out when they finished the mechanical hardware and turned to the computer+software+display part.
You would think in an incredible flight simulator, there would be at least 2 side monitors, & 1 overhead, near full view capability! Can other programs be loaded, like a Star Wars simulation? Thanks
connect this with VR and GTA then its better than real life
That's really cool, I remember wondering if modern technology could reliably simulate the g-forces a fighter pilot experiences a while ago, I guess here's my answer.
Ask an experienced pilot if it simulates real flight?
and even though its not the perfect experience because of how it will make you feel the g force is utterly different. this thing has two axial movement on the cockpit as we see here although cockpit can turn 360 it doesnt make flying experience fully immersed with the motors where it ll drag you one point to another. when you get a g force it happens with the resultant of the vector of movement and gravity. and as you can see here in a enviroment like this whenever the g force you are willing to create isnt at the same level or plane surface area that is parallel to the axis of g force simulating motors, the force you ll create most likely going to be unreal experience than what you re trying to simulate. and i dont even count on the delay of the motors in lateral axis.
And this is what you see: imagine underneath it what kind of gears and engine are required to move all of it.
Now I know where my taxes goes!! Yeahhhh
Add water and detergent so you can clean the uniform at the same time.
19m Microsoft flight sim but has more lag huh, smart.
Just imagine a 19m quantum pc gamer in a 20 dollars IKEA chair
Aircraft stimulator- 19 million
Software- Garbage can
The ultimate flight sim!.. ..I want one!..
When u looking for a joystick to play war thunder and end up here
It’s not a flight simulator per say.. it’s a physiology testing device. That price tag is actually surprising considering our non motion sims (with accurate controls and physics specific to aircraft model) run roughly 20-30 mil. The simulators have much better graphics and have the ability to mimic what you see in the aircraft. The controls are all the same as the aircraft you are flying right down to the tension in the throttle (there are some minor feel differences). This isn’t something they needed to make into a training simulator. Hence the use of an off the shelf game and stick and throttle.
need DCS
With "some" modifications you could simulate a poor flight of your rocket/plane in kerbal...
I love seeing how the military wastes my money.
This can be crucial to winning a war ya know
Why am I not surprised a bunch of TH-cam warriors are criticizing an incredible motion simulator for the graphics?
they have nothing better to do. close-minded people don't understand the need for understanding such a simulator. sure there shit graphics, but that was never the purpose... otherwise, such a simulator would have been in dev for us civies lol
Henry Steele IV it was never made to simulate real life
DUde those graphics are almost as bad as the original gameboys. The ones with the green screens bitch
it's LAGGING dude. they built a $19M simulator and it's LAGGING.
Bro its its 19 fucking Million. Shot has 1990s graphics in it.
This is the equivalent of buying a
100 inch 8K HDR TV with a $20K surround sound system and hooking up an Atari 2600 with the E.T game to it.
deveriam meter um simulador mais moderno. que vergonha xD
This is gonna be great for those unmanned fighter drones. Real g-load feedback etc., you won’t overstress the aircraft and still be able to fight. We can make fighters smaller and make way more of them. Make them more menacing. Or just make airframes that can handle 20gs and have zero force feedback for the pilot so they can do unreal maneuvers against our enemies.
Imagine a fighter that doesn’t require life support systems and etc for pilot comfort, it’d be so much lighter and more maneuverable. Imagine a full honeycomb like internal structure. No OBOGS, no a/c or heater, none of those heavy systems.
They definitely need to move to X-planes. MSFS is old news.
seriously,its not worth 19m
kelly monster yes it is
When I win the EuroMillions this is going to be my gaming set up.
19 million and they using graphics from 2004 😂da fuck , there so many amazing simulation worlds for flight simulators today. I dont understand why they dont use them. With 19 million dollars they still couldnt even afford not even 100$ of the software. Like cmon 😂 and it's not just this one. Many high tech million dollar simulators, with motions. Have graphics from 2005......or maybe they just waiting for Microsoft flight simulator 2020 like the rest of us 😂
I love the way the i implemented the planes acceleration and braking, that must feel so good to mess around with
That looks like crap xD
Everybody gansta until the graphix be gansta bruh gansta moment bro everybody be gansta
Came straight to the comments after I saw the shaking in the screen from whatever software was running the sim and I have to say... I was not dissapointed 😂😂
The best builder of full motion flight sims is CAE Inc., headquartered in Montreal, Quebec! I worked for them for 9 years before resigning, due to a rare health condition.
Holly shit.. this can replicate exact G force like flying a real one.. unbelievable.. love it...
19-million-dollar rig with an Atari Graphics card. That's my Govt.
Gotta love those 4K graphics
And this is the reason why me, as a pilot, I’m sticking with X-Plane and not MSFS 2020. If it’s good for the USAF it’s good for me.
Playing DCS World or Falcon BMS with that simulator would be amazing!
