| VT MÄK Announces the Release of MÄK WebLVC Server 1.0 |
VT MÄK is pleased to announce the release of MÄK WebLVC Server 1.0 – an exciting new product that enables web-based simulation applications running in a browser to interoperate with traditional DIS or HLA federations.
MÄK WebLVC Server was first demonstrated in the fall of 2012. Having completed a short beta period, today’s release marks its general availability.
MÄK WebLVC Server connects web-based simulation federates to DIS/HLA federations without requiring any changes to existing applications. Based on our VR-Exchange interoperability portal, the server translates
Simulation data between your federation’s native protocol and a new web-friendly simulation interoperability protocol called WebLVC. Web-based applications written in JavaScript can connect to the server, and
directly send and receive WebLVC messages. Your federation may be using DIS, HLA 1.3, HLA 1516, HLA Evolved, TENA, or any other protocol for which a VR-Exchange “Broker” exists. MÄK WebLVC Server can be used on
closed labs behind firewalls, or over the internet.
In addition to the server software itself, the MÄK WebLVC Server product comes with a set of JavaScript libraries called VR-Link.js-a JavaScript implementation of some of the key functionality in VR-Link (our industry-leading C++ interoperability toolkit).
VR-Link.js implements the client side of the WebLVC protocol, easing the job of building WebLVC-compliant JavaScript federates. Several sample JavaScript applications are also included with the server – to demonstrate how to send and receive WebLVC
messages from your own web applications.
MÄK WebLVC Server is the first product to come out of our broader WebLVC initiative. Stay tuned for information about our MÄK WebLVC Suite product – scheduled for release in Q2. MÄK WebLVC Suite will include a
collection of out-of-the-box web Apps built on the WebLVC Server and WebLVC Protocol. These Apps will allow you to observe your simulation in 2D or 3D, control VR-Forces-based simulation scenarios, or provide a
web-based simulated camera or sensor display through streaming video.
To run our sample and demonstration applications and experience the WebLVC concept for yourself, check out our WebLVCTestbed online at:

NOTE: A browser that supports WebSockets is required, which in general means any recent version of Chrome, Firefox, Safari (including mobile Safari), or Internet Explorer 10.
