blackshark.ai Announces Partnership with Flight Simulator Manufacturer TRU Simulation

Digital twin developer blackshark.ai announced a groundbreaking collaboration with TRU Simulation + Training Inc., a Textron Inc.  company in pilot training. Leveraging blackshark.ai’s AI-driven platform, virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality technologies, as well as Epic’s Unreal Engine, the technology will revolutionize pilot training with immersive and hyper-realistic 3D environments. TRU Simulation will be the first to launch the innovative technology in the new Veris VR Simulator. 

Blackshark.ai’s technology recreates airports and locations with unprecedented speed and quality, simulating the complexities of navigating dense urban landscapes. Blackshark.ai’s Digital Airport Generator is a pivotal component of the technology, enabling the creation of detailed digital airport models complete with dynamic lighting systems and runway markings. 

As a concrete starting point, JFK Airport and the larger NYC area, including Manhattan’s heliport, have been developed to demonstrate the technology’s capabilities. Blackshark.ai’s AI-driven platform can recreate any airport and location to serve new customers of the Veris simulator.
