FOR IMMEDIATE
RELEASE
ETC Simulation Introduces New SmartModel Technology in the Advanced Disaster
Management Simulator
Southampton, PA, USA, January 10, 2012 - Environmental Tectonics Corporation's
("ETC" or the "Company") Simulation Division, located in Orlando, FL, announced
today the recent launch of it's SmartModel(TM) technology, available within the
Advanced Disaster Management Simulator ("ADMS").
The new SmartModel(TM) technology consists of a library of 3D objects and
elements that can be inserted into a Master Scenario Events List (MSEL) exercise
scenario, either as a time- or trigger-based event, or as on on-the-fly inject.
This new development offers additional incident scenario generating capabilities
to training staff and enhanced training benefit to trainees.
"An incident can change dramatically based on the introduction of just one
variable, whether that variable is the presence of group of bystanders, the
number of involved vehicles, the presence of a hazardous material, or even the
location of a fence line," stated Marco van Wijngaarden, President of ETC
Simulation. "ADMS was developed to train for All-Hazards events and 'what-if'
incidents, and the development of the SmartModel library exponentially
increases this capability. Exercise staff can easily develop unlimited training
scenarios, each requiring different decisions from the trainees. We are pleased
that this system enhancement will ultimately better prepare command teams and
operations center staff for any real-world event."
The SmartModel library currently contains various intelligent elements including
vehicles, crowds, casualties, threats, and hazards. ETC Simulation will
continuously add to the library in their effort to meet training priorities and
objectives of the emergency management community.
About ADMS
ADMS(TM) is the high-fidelity Virtual Reality Simulation Training Stage that
houses multiple products to include incident command training from technical to
strategic level (ADMS-Command), driver training and vehicle operation (ADMS-ARFF
and ADMS-Drive) and multiple level police coordination for crowd management and
riot control (ADMS-Control). ETC's signature technology blends physics-based
simulation, embedded artificial intelligence, accurate animations, photo-
realistic graphics, ambient sounds, vehicle controls, and motion platforms to
totally immerse trainees in the exercise. ADMS enables first responders and
emergency managers to prepare at all levels of response in a safe, economical
and environmentally-conscious way.
