SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SIMULATION OF CONDITIONS ALONG ROUTE
First Claim
1. A system for simulating conditions along a route traveled by a mobile platform comprising:
- a source of user input;
a navigation control module that generates navigation data that includes a route for the mobile platform based upon at least the user input; and
a conditions control module that determines at least one condition associated with the route, the at least one condition including at least a lighting condition associated with the travel of the mobile platform along the route.

Abstract
A system for simulating conditions along a route traveled by a mobile platform (such as a train, marine vessel, aircraft or automobile) is provided. The system includes a source of user input. The system also includes a navigation control module that generates navigation data. The navigation data includes a route for the mobile platform based upon at least the user input. The system further includes a conditions control module that determines at least one condition associated with the route. The at least one condition includes at least a lighting condition associated with the travel of the mobile platform along the route.
