MÄK Stealth

The MÄK Stealth is now powered by MÄK’s 3D visual solution, VR-Vantage. The MÄK Stealth still fills the role of 3D information station, providing you the data you need about your networked virtual world. But now when you purchase the MÄK Stealth you also receive a powerful new application, Vantage IG, a desktop IG for out-the-window views. The new VR-Vantage platform also gives you access to the VR-Vantage Toolkit for customization.

Whether you need it for situational awareness, simulation debugging, or after action review, the MÄK Stealth is easy to use and ready to run out-of-the-box. Using an intuitive GUI, you can load your terrain and connect to a distributed simulation exercise. Navigate through the virtual world by dragging the terrain, clicking on a destination, or maneuvering the eyepoint using familiar first-person-shooter controls. You can orbit around buildings or props, attach to and follow entities, jump in the cockpit for an out-the-window view, or mount your virtual camera on a vehicle.

The MÄK Stealth visually presents the widest variety of information about your DIS or HLA virtual environment. In addition to the typical entity display, the Stealth can draw trailing effects, trajectory histories, entity information overlays, attacker-target lines, and more. It can also draw 3D representations of tactical graphics from VR-Forces, such as waypoints and routes.

VR-Vantage Toolkit

With VR-Vantage Toolkit you can build customize the MÄK Stealth and Vantage IG through plug-ins or the API. But it’s also powerful enough to allow you to build your own 3D visualization application. Or just use it to embed VR-Vantage capabilities directly into your simulation applications.

And because the VR-Vantage Toolkit is based on OpenSceneGraph, you can leverage value-added plug-ins built by the OSG com­munity and MÄK partners. Need to build an Instructor Operator Station? A debrief or after-action-review tool? A 3D data analysis tool or custom IG for a human in-the-loop simulator? The VR-Vantage Toolkit provides an excellent starting point.

Please note that access to the Toolkit functionality requires a VR-Vantage Developer’s license.
