Career Technology Poster Series

18 January 2010

Career Bytes, Tech Bytes & Beyond the Game

If you haven't come across this series of posters on our website yet, go check them out! These posters were created by Orlando Science Center as part of an educational series for this year's Otronicon. The idea was to highlight career aspects and information beyond just computer programming that are not always associated with the videogame and modeling and simulation industries. See if you can find the real posters on display throughout the building during Otronicon.

Edward Link’s Pilot Trainer AKA the “Blue Box”

Print

16 January 2010
Posted in Simulation Universe - Level 2

Donated to the Orlando Science Center by Lockheed Martin

In 1929, Edward Albert Link created the first ever flight simulator when he created his Pilot Trainer (aka Blue Box). This simulator used a vacuum pump that operated the bellows in order to create the feel of a “pitch” and “roll” experienced during real flight. During World War II, the ANT-18 Basic Instrument Trainer, was used as the standard equipment at every air training school in the U.S. and Allied nations. The Blue Box has been designated as A Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.

See the "Blue Box" on display in Military Tech on Level 2 during Otronicon!
