MANTIS® is Quantum3D’s Real-time Scene Management software. It employs a powerful client / server software architecture that facilitates multiple synchronized channels driven from a single host system. MANTIS is equipped with a suite of features that support communication functions, peripheral devices, displays, and multi-channel synchronization. The MANTIS architecture supports the full range of high-end IG features, including the new CDB native support, special effects, sensors, weather, and lighting, along with mission functions such as height-above-terrain and line-of-sight intersection testing. MANTIS’ features can be easily extended with plug-ins that offer additional capabilities. MANTIS is supported on Quantum3D’s high-end IDX Visual Simulation Hardware and on off-the-shelf PCs. MANTIS is designed, developed and maintained by our Silicon Valley, USA engineering team. Contact Quantum3D for additional information on supported PC platforms. Features Special Effects Includes vapor trails, sparks, dust, smoke, explosions, noise, dead pixels, etc. Flexible Host Interface Supports CIGI 2.0, 3.0, 3.2. and 4.0. Environmental Support Weather effects, such as precipitation, fog, haze, dust, and the sun’s positioning, are easily configurable on MANTIS®. Terrain Database Support Support for complete world wide database with seamless flight across entire earth. Moving Model Support Supports full 6-DOF position and rate control; articulations, toggles, and animation scripts. Mission Function Support MANTIS® allows clamping and conforming of models to the terrain, line-of-sight intersection testing.
