===Disorientation training=== AMST Systemtechnik GmbH (AMST) of Austria and Environmental Tectonics Corporation (ETC) of Philadelphia, US, manufacture a range of simulators for disorientation training, that have full freedom in yaw. The most complex of these devices is the Desdemona simulator at the TNO Research Institute in The Netherlands, manufactured by AMST. This large simulator has a gimballed cockpit mounted on a framework which adds vertical motion. The framework is mounted on rails attached to a rotating platform. The rails allow the simulator cab to be positioned at different radii from the centre of rotation and this gives a sustained G capability up to about 3.5.<ref name="TNO">[http://www.tno.nl/content.cfm?context=thema&content=markt_product&laag1=894&laag2=196&laag3=167&item_id=1381&Taal=2 "DESDEMONA: The next generation in movement simulation"] ''Nederlandse Organisatie voor Toegepast Natuurwetenschappelijk Onderzoek'' Retrieved: 5 July 2012.</ref><ref>Roza, M., M.
