Land Vehicles
Stryker
Vortex high-fidelity vehicle dynamics were used to simulate the Stryker personnel carrier. Simulated behaviors include variable gear ratios, tire-terrain tracking, suspension, steering, obstacle impact and force reaction.
M1 Abrams Battle Tank
This Vortex-enabled tank can roll over rough terrain and various obstacles with great accuracy. Multiple gear ratios and variable transmission rates give the tank realistic driving behavior. The turret and barrel are fully articulated. Comprehensive vehicle dynamics include suspension, steering effects, and tread models.
Hummer
The rugged Vortex hummer makes simulated driving seem real. The hummer features accurate vehicle handling, full contact friction and terrain interaction, variable acceleration based on gear ratios, and realistic tire slip models. Vortex dynamics will handle any type of land-based driving vehicles, both manned and unmanned.
Industrial Machines
Log Forwarder
Simlog, a leading developer of operator trainers, relied on Vortex to simulate a physically realistic logging machine. Vortex calculates the position, orientation and interaction of the machine with the logs in a realtime 3D environment. "Vortex is a great piece of software engineering", says Paul Mackenzie, Vice-President, Product Development.
Mobile Crane
The mobile crane illustrates how Vortex can be used to accurately model articulated machines such as cranes and can simulate including cables, flex in retractable booms and powered motors. Note how the vehicle reacts to the weight and dimensions of the boxes.
Reach Stacker
This demo and video demonstrate how Vortex is used to simulate correct behavior of an articulated machine as it grasps, lifts and carries containers. Vehicle handling is directly impacted by the size and weight of the container. Once a container is lifted, mass and inertial properties cause it to swing back and forth.
Tree Harvester
Jointly developed by Oryx Simulations and the CMLabs Professional Services Team, this trainer is used around the world. Vortex was used to model correct machine behaviors including gear shifting and engine power, tire-terrain tracking, hydraulics and the grapple head.
Robots and Remotely-Operated Vehicles
Stryker
NASA Ames used Vortex to prototype the Mars Rover for the mission in 2010. Vortex was used to model an autonomous vehicle in which each wheel independently tracks the terrain. The prototype mimics the real robot and has no suspension.
M1 Abrams Battle Tank
This demo was developed by and appears courtesy of Dr. Tadashi Odashima and the Environment Adaptive Robotics Systems Laboratory at RIKEN BMC. Dr. Odashima was able to prototype this design within one week using Vortex.
Hummer
The robotic arm demonstrates the fidelity of Vortex friction models. Based on forward dynamics, the gripper uses friction to grasp and move blocks of varying size and mass. This directly impacts the arm's ability to lift and move the blocks.
