APRONAUT is a patented computer-based simulator that trains passenger boarding bridge operators on docking and undocking procedures without using a real bridge. It reproduces every operation and manoeuvre in full 3D across different aircraft models and airport environments, with real-time failure alerts and cloud-based record-keeping. The hardware console replicates a real operating desk and can be configured to match any PBB manufacturer's control layout.
