Cloud-Based SaaS Platform for Drone Design & Simulation

SIMNET is an advanced cloud-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform developed by ComQuest that provides a range of integrated design, analysis and simulation capabilities for a wide variety of users and stakeholders within the UAS (unmanned aerial systems) industry. UST is delighted to welcome ComQuest on board as a supplier partner, and we will be highlighting their unique solutions and capabilities across our channels over the next 12 months.

We’ve just launched the SIMNET UST supplier profile, which has been written and built by our team in collaboration with the company. The Silver profile showcases the powerful software, which is based on the proven Typhon Physics Engine and utilizes multidisciplinary physics-based simulation and analysis algorithms to predict aircraft performance and simulate flight dynamics in real time.

SIMNET for Academic and Research Institutions

SIMNET is a comprehensive online platform designed to enhance UAS education and research activities at academic institutions. It serves as an invaluable educational tool in teaching UAS-related courses, effectively preparing students for careers in the rapidly evolving UAS industry. The SIMNET Simulator product offers simulated experience in operating UAS systems, eliminating the risks and costs associated with physical equipment. Meanwhile, the SIMNET Designer product allows students to learn basic to advanced topics in aerospace engineering and design methods.

SIMNET is also an invaluable asset for research and development, offering a realistic, safe environment for testing and experimenting with UAS technologies. This aids researchers in exploring new concepts, algorithms, and applications in UAS. The platform is ideal for studying UAV airframe performance across various models like multicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, and VTOLs, as well as for developing UAS flight control systems.

SIMNET for UAS Training Providers

SIMNET offers a comprehensive and versatile platform designed to enhance the quality and efficiency of UAS training programs. The platform features high-fidelity, brand-specific flight simulation models and realistic 3D terrains, ensuring trainees receive a realistic and immersive learning experience.

While the SIMNET Simulator product offers a free-flight simulator option, SIMNET Academy provides a more comprehensive training platform that integrates a Learning Management System (LMS) to deliver theoretical lessons, in conjunction with practical simulated lessons. Offering a blend of traditional classroom and remote learning options, SIMNET Academy accommodates both instructor-led and self-paced learning styles.

SIMNET for UAS Service Providers

SIMNET is a vital tool for UAS service providers, streamlining pilot training and supporting day-to-day operations. It enables providers to standardize training on specific UAS platforms, flight control systems, operational workflows, and various flight environments. SIMNET’s continuous training modules help pilots maintain proficiency and stay current with evolving technologies and regulations.

Beyond training, SIMNET is instrumental in operational planning, especially for complex or high-risk missions requiring government approvals. It allows for detailed planning and rehearsal of specific missions, using precise simulations of the UAS and flight locations. This preparation is crucial for conducting challenging missions like Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) flights or operations with high-cost UAS systems.

SIMNET for UAS Manufacturers

SIMNET offers a solution for UAS manufacturers aiming to enhance their product offering and customer satisfaction. ComQuest’s team of engineers collaborates with manufacturers to create accurate, brand-specific UAS simulators, delivering a comprehensive training experience that mirrors the actual UAS’s visual and performance characteristics.

Beyond free-flight simulations, SIMNET Academy provides the infrastructure for developing tailored, web-based training courses. These courses integrate theoretical knowledge with practical simulation exercises, ensuring a well-rounded understanding of the UAS operations.
