Meet us at Booth #1815
Join the Unreal Engine simulation team at I/ITSEC 2022
Epic Games is pleased to attend the I/ITSEC conference this year, and present several live demonstrations of simulation solutions with Unreal Engine at their core. Be sure to come and see us if you’re at the show! If you aren’t planning to be there, we still have some great content to explore here.
In-booth demonstrations
Join us at Booth #1815 to learn about and experience many of the ways Unreal Engine is transforming the simulation industry through innovative real-time solutions.
Antoinette Project
The Antoinette Project is a comprehensive set of resources to support the creation of the next generation of flight simulators, including a demonstration system where you can try it out for yourself. Come and learn about resources and best practices for Unreal Engine so you can build your own simulation solution.
Content creation
Companies like Blackshark, Cesium, ESRI, and many others are already leveraging Unreal Engine’s double precision and geo-coordinates to create large open worlds and modernize content creation pipelines. Learn how to do it yourself in the booth, as Epic staff demonstrate the workflow for creating/importing synthetic environments into Unreal Engine.
Co-simulation and interoperability
Simulation has always faced challenges with scalability and interoperability. We’ll be showing a variety of solutions as interactive demos, including co-simulation with high-fidelity multibody dynamics simulation, and spatial and cloud distribution solutions. In addition, non-visible spectrum solutions for IR and NVG will be showcased for the first time at I/ITSEC.

Around the conference
Epic Games is also involved in several demonstrations and presentations around the I/ITSEC conference with our partners.
8:30 AM - 10:00 AM
Room W311ABCD
Moderator: Danny Williams, Unreal Engine Simulation Manager, Epic Games
Panelists:
The innovation that we see coming from the simulation industry has started to converge with other industries, and nowhere is this more true than with the foundational technologies used to build the metaverse. Join us as industry luminaries discuss how metaverse advances will benefit our future. This panel is presented as part of the “Next Big Thing” initiative, which Epic Games is proud to sponsor.
12:20 PM - 12:50 PM
Booth #2538
Presenter: Sébastien Lozé, Unreal Engine Business Director, Simulation, Epic Games
Using the best practices from the Antoinette Project as a base, this session provides a blueprint for success for those looking to leverage modern real-time development solutions for simulation applications. You’ll also hear about the path to becoming a recognized service partner in the Unreal Engine ecosystem.
10:30 AM - 12:00 PM
Room W308A
Epic Games is proud to sponsor Iron Dev, a competition where teams have three days to develop a training solution to improve warfighter readiness. At this event, the teams will demonstrate their solution before an audience and a panel of judges, then winners will be chosen for different categories including Best Overall, Most Innovative, and People’s Choice.
Moderator: Brian Vogt, CMSP Solutions Architect, SAIC
