The simulator is said to consist of a range of specific OSVs from the Uniwise fleet, optimising the training value.

The desktop trainers feature a concept whereby a full 240° horizontal outside field of view is presented to the trainee at their desktop without any framerate or quality loss using just one high-spec PC.

NAUTIS desktop trainers’ large field of view enables the training of alongside maneuvers that require a perfect port or starboard view.

Normally, the outside field of view is obtained in large full mission bridge simulators.

A much more limited view of 30-120° is provided by the existing desktop trainers, which is only useful for straight reverse platform approaches.

The trainer uses an actual azimuth control box that is connected to the PC through USB and the entire set-up is compact, fitting in any office or classroom environment.

Uniwise’s Songkhla training centre plays a key part in the company’s strategy to develop, train and retain competent crew in Thailand.

The base accommodates the training centre, the main technical centre of excellence and a large warehouse for critical spares.

VSTEP develops simulators and virtual training software, and creates 3D virtual training applications and simulators.
