Abstract:
To overcome the difficulties in application of printed technical manual to torpedo′s usage, storage, and up-dating, the interactive electronic technical manual(IETM)-based usage and maintenance of a torpedo are explored. First, the current development status and key technology of the IETM are analyzed. Then, the development of the IETM for usage and maintenance of a torpedo is performed in accordance with the characteristics of torpedo equipment, including the establishment of overall developing framework, the selection of general developing platform, and the technical im-plementation. In the case of technical implementation, five key aspects are discussed in detail in terms of the IETM de-veloping standard for torpedoes, the definition of content data models, the implementation of virtual simulation func-tions, the implementation of interactive functions, and the IETM system integration. Finally, a developing example of the IETM for a torpedo is given.
