Pitch Commander™

Gives you a well-defined process for planning and running your federation execution. Locations and hosts are described together with any important applications such as simulators, supporting data bases, visualization systems etc.

The federation can then be described and mapped to the corresponding hosts and applications. Pitch Commander™ also allows you to auto-discover what hosts and federates are available. 

The Power to Command!

Pitch Commander™ is a powerful tool that enables you to control and monitor your federation. Whether you are running training exercises or analytical simulations Pitch Commander™ is easily adapted to the needs of your federation, e.g. for starting, stopping, choosing scenarios and more.

Graphical Monitoring

The graphical interface provides the overview you need to be able to quickly detect, analyze and correct problems in the federation or in individual federates.

Distributed Scripting

Pitch Commander lets you perform a large number of distributed actions from scripts, like starting up and inatializing simulations. Another possibility is to monitor the state of hosts and federations. You can also assign scripts to buttons for easy access.

Rich Functionality

Pitch Commander™ features a rich set of built-in functionality to launch, monitor and terminate your federates and other programs needed for your distributed simulation. With the file deployment feature you can distribute and synhronize scenarios, terrain data and more across local or wide area networks.
