Abstract: Mixed Reality (MR) is one of the newest technologies
explored in education. It promises the potential to promote teaching
and learning and making learners- experience more “engaging".
However, there still lack of research on designing a virtual learning
environment using MR technology. In this paper, we describe the
Mixed Reality technology, the characteristics of situated learning as
instructional design for virtual environment using mixed reality
technology. We also explain a case study that implemented those
design and also the system overview.
Abstract: A novel low-cost flight simulator with the development
goals cost effectiveness and high performance has been realized for
meeting the huge pilot training needs of airlines. The simulator
consists of an aircraft dynamics model, a sophisticated designed
low-profile electrical driven motion system with a subsided cabin, a
mixed reality based semi-virtual cockpit system, a control loading
system and some other subsystems. It shows its advantages over
traditional flight simulator by its features achieved with open
architecture, software solutions and low-cost hardware.
