MOSES researchers use LIDAR based scanning techniques to rapidly create actual operating environments and use them inside the MOSES platform. In cooperation with UCF/Institute for Simulation Technology, the MOSES team developed a content ingestion method to allow for actual operational areas to be scanned using LIDAR and then produce scenario output for use in a virtual world.
