Systems and methods for remotely operated machine training
The present disclosure describes systems and methods for training a user to control one or more simulated remotely operated machines. A network stream definition language file is used to identify and process simulated remotely operated machine data exchanged between a simulation computing device and a plurality of simulation stations, possibly being defined by many different Interface Control Documents (ICDs). Any exchange of simulated remotely operated machine data between the simulation computing device and a simulation station passes through a protocol gateway that implements the network stream definition language file. The protocol gateway is located at any point of the communication between the simulation computing device and the simulation station. Because the network stream definition language file configures the protocol gateway to process data between the simulation computing device and the plurality of simulation stations, each potentially having respective proprietary ICDs, only a single protocol gateway is necessary within the system.

Debriefing a session from a user in a system. During the session, while the user performs actions on one or more tangible instruments of the system, dynamic data is logged in relation to the system along a session timeline. The dynamic data covers the actions of the user on tangible instrument(s). A graphical user interface depicting a debriefing scene, related to the session, is displayed from a first point of view starting at a first time within the session timeline. The debriefing scene is generated starting at the first time from at least a first image feed. Upon detection of a predetermined event in the dynamic data at a second time along the session timeline, a second point of view different from the first point of view is defined and the debriefing scene is generated therefrom after the second time using at least a second image feed.
