CoSI Pilot (DroneSim) is a virtual reality simulator for training drone pilots, built by Bangkok University's Center of Specialty Innovation with the Defence Technology Institute (DTI) of Thailand. It builds flying, decision-making and situational-awareness skills, with training aligned to both civilian and defence standards.
Training in the simulator
- Realistic missions: reconnaissance, search and rescue, and tactical operations
- Hard conditions: mountains, dense cities and strong wind
- Accurate drone physics: flight dynamics, controller response and onboard sensors
- Trainees choose the drone model and mission to match each lesson
- A built-in assessment gives real-time feedback and performance analytics
- Organizations can screen and prepare pilots before real missions, with no risk to equipment or people
Results
- More than 500 users trained
- 40% fewer incidents in real-world training
- An innovation award in education
Built with
- Unity and C#
- VR and physics simulation
