"Ensemble represents a breakthrough in visual system technology for E&S and the simulation industry," said Dave Figgins, E&S Simulation Group vice president. "We are very excited to be part of the new endeavor with the U.S. Navy."

A PC-based hardware and software image generation system developed especially for simulation, Ensemble is one of the newest elements in E&S's Symphony(TM) line, which provides a full range of compatible simulation products. Ensemble represents a major advancement in state-of-the-art visual systems for simulation, making true, realistic simulation available for many new applications.

Evans & Sutherland develops and manufactures hardware and software to produce highly realistic 3D synthetic worlds. E&S business units deliver high-quality visual systems for simulation and training in defense and commercial applications as well as high-performance systems for workstation graphics, digital video, digital theater, and other applications throughout the world.
