Montreal, December 14, 2009 – (NYSE: CAE; TSX: CAE) – CAE today announced that its CAE Flightscape and CAE USA businesses have been selected by Concurrent Technologies Corporation (CTC) for a demonstration/validation initiative to demonstrate the benefits of applying Military Flight Operations Quality Assurance (MFOQA) concepts to the full-flight simulator (FFS) training environment for accident prevention and mishap reduction. The demonstration/validation initiative is funded by the U.S. Defense Safety Oversight Council (DSOC) through the National Defense Center for Energy and Environment (NDCEE) and is operated by CTC.
The concept, known as Simulator Operations Quality Assurance (SOQA), will involve researchers collecting statistics generated from flight data from FFS training sessions for comparison with statistics from flight data from the actual aircraft (MFOQA). The SOQA initiative will also explore the potential for developing evidenced-based training scenarios using objective flight data from known MFOQA events or mishaps.

Sundog Software has released version 1.91 of SilverLining™, its middleware for the real-time rendering of the sky and everything in it. This new release features improvements in the rendering of stratus clouds, allowing them to be localized and giving them actual 3D depth when viewed from above through the use of vertex shaders. It also includes improvements geared toward Earth-Centered-Earth-Fixed (ECEF) databases to provide smoother transitions as you leave Earth's atmosphere, and view the atmospheric limb from space.
Version 1.91 also includes further tweaks to SilverLining's natural lighting model, which may be used to provide physically-based, tone-mapped ambient skylight and direct sunlight and moonlight to your scenes. These improvements also result in more realistic shading of the sky and 3D volumentric clouds rendered by SilverLining.
