What is SIMNET Designer?
SIMNET Designer is a next-generation drone design exploration and simulation environment that runs on your web browser
SIMNET provides an unparalleled set of capabilities
by integrating modern engineering paradigms
MULTIDISCIPLINARY ANALYSIS
analyze multiple aspects of the design within a single tool
REAL-TIME ANALYSIS
provides fast results enabling fast design-space exploration
USER-FRIENDLY INTERFACE
flexible, yet intuitive interface with low learning curve
How it Works
CREATE
combine parametric components to create virtually any type of drone design, from multicopters, to fixed-wings and VTOLs
ANALYZE
use SIMNET’s analysis tools to obtain real-time predictions of your aircraft’s performance such as flight time, range and payload capacity
SIMULATE
simulate your aircraft to observe its flight characteristics and performance within realistic environments and atmospheric conditions
A Versatile Tool for Developers, Educators and Students
DRONE DEVELOPERS
Streamline your workflow with an integrated multidisciplinary design and analysis tool, to reduce your drone development time and costs by minimizing costly prototyping and testing iterations.
EDUCATORS
Enhance your curriculum by providing students an interactive virtual environment where they can learn basic to advanced engineering concepts through hands-on experimentation.
STUDENTS
Learn and gain an intuition of advanced aerospace engineering principles through hands-on experimentation within an interactive virtual environment.
Capabilities
SIMNET Designer combines an unparalleled set of multidisciplinary design and simulation capabilities into an intuitive, easy to use interface
Aerodynamic Analysis
SIMNET is powered by our proprietary Typhon Physics Engine (TM), which uses state of the art algorithms to provide real-time aerodynamic and performance predictions.
Mass and Balance Analysis
SIMNET automatically estimates the mass and balance of the aircraft based on its design specifications. If precise values are known by the user, these can always be entered manually.
Propulsion System Analysis
SIMNET also analyzes the performance and dynamics of the propulsion system, including propellers, brushless motors and electric power systems, or internal combustion engines.
Aircraft Performance Analysis
SIMNET provides real-time prediction of over 30 aircraft performance parameters such as flight time, flight range, and payload capacity.
Flight Simulation
Connect your transmitter to SIMNET to simulate your aircraft and observe its flight characteristics and performance under specific environmental and atmospheric conditions.
Flight Control System Simulation
SIMNET provides turnkey Software-In-The-Loop simulation of popular flight control systems such as ArduPilot and PX4 allowing you to test the flight control software in conjunction with the UAV airframe.
