Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University presents Virtual Tours, a comprehensive visual experience of its diverse campuses and programs. The silent video takes viewers through clips of Embry-Riddle's research, flight training, engineering, and student life. A detailed transcript describes the visuals in the video, including related links. The tour highlights include a researcher in a replica spacesuit at Meteor Crater, representing Embry-Riddle's space programs and research, and students working in the Satellite Mission Control Lab. It showcases the record-breaking Deneb liquid-fueled rocket ignition and launch. Viewers can see a Frasca full-motion Cessna 172 simulator in Prescott and the Advanced Flight Simulation Center in Daytona Beach, alongside the Spatial Disorientation Training Lab. Flight line scenes capture a pilot in a Diamond DA42 at sunset in Daytona Beach and a DA42 flying near Sedona, Arizona. The instrument panel of a Cessna 172 over Prescott is also featured. The tour further displays students working at radar displays in the Prescott Air Traffic Control Laboratory and a student operating a console in Daytona Beach's Air Traffic Control Labs with panoramic airport simulation screens. Research facilities showcased include researchers adjusting equipment on a quadruped robot dog in the Engineering Physics Propulsion Laboratory (EPPL) and a four-wheeled rover with lidar equipment traversing volcanic terrain for lava tube mapping. Inside the Daytona Beach Observatory, researchers stand beneath a large telescope, and in the Space Technologies Lab clean room, a researcher handles equipment for the LLAMAS astronomical camera system. The rapid assembly of EagleCam, a small cube-shaped camera system, is shown in a time-lapse sequence. Further engineering and research highlights include a student adjusting equipment in Daytona Beach's EPPL, researchers in clear protective face shields at the Propulsion Laboratory and Rocket Test Complex in Prescott, and students working with small electronic components in the EagleSat Lab and examining spacecraft hardware in the Space Systems Lab. Researchers at the EPPL fit a mechanical exoskeleton around a person's hand and wrist, an electrical engineering student adjusts electronic test equipment, and an experimental multirotor aircraft is shown at the Center for Advanced Air Mobility. The tour also features a researcher working in the chamber of a Lithoz micro-3D printer, numbered evidence markers at the Kieckhefer Foundation Forensic Lab in Prescott, and a gloved researcher using a micropipette in Daytona Beach’s Space Microbiology Lab. The video transitions to campus and community life, showing students cheering at the Daytona Beach Campus Carnival, the Prescott Campus Olympiad, and the Diwali Color Run. The final scenes depict commencement celebrations, with graduates smiling at worldwide graduation on the USS Midway and at Prescott graduation. Prospective students are invited to attend an Open House to explore campus, meet faculty, and get a glimpse of their future at Embry-Riddle. Upcoming Open Houses are scheduled for Saturday, October 24, 2026, in Daytona Beach, Florida, and Prescott, Arizona. Registration is available online for both locations.
