Cooper LeComp, one of the two main developers at TORQUESIM has debuted another headline feature of the group’s upcoming Pocket Rocket (Impulse 100) aircraft, synthetic vision.
Synthetic Vision in X-Plane is the brain child of Saso Kiselkov and the team at HotStart and allows pilots to better visualise their flight situation through augmented reality-type technology that displays terrain and runway features, usually overlaid behind the primary flight display.
LeComp announced the coming of synthetic vision in a comment on the AFM Simulation Discord server:
“We are excited to be bringing it [synthetic vision] to the Pocket Rocket! Give a huge thanks to @totoritko [Saso Kiselkov] for making it available for licensing!”
