Virtual Environment Computational Training Resource (VECTR): OSIRIS-REx
(KSC-14272)
Overview
VECTR (Virtual Environment Computational Training Resource): OSIRIS-REx is the latest application under the VECTR product line. VECTR is a virtual reality platform, built with commercial off-the-shelf hardware, designed to augment the training process for various operations at KSC. VECTR is a flexible, scalable platform that allows for model updates if engineering designs change, and scenario updates if a procedure changes. All aspects of the VECTR virtual environment can be changed and updated within the software by a developer even if the hardware hasn't yet been built in the real world. This version highlights operations in the Payload Hazardous Safety Facility (PHSF) of the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft before it gets launched and also demonstrates the touchdown on Bennu for sample collection and return.
This software is only available for use by federal employees and contractors
to the federal government working on projects where this tool would be applicable.
