Helios ist ein Cockpit Management System, das ursprünglich für die DCS Flugsimulationen entwickelt wurde. Es lassen sich damit aber auch relativ einfach Touchscreen-Interfaces für andere Anwendungen erstellen und nutzen.

Manch einer erinnert sich noch an das alte "Touchbuddy", was leider schon sehr lange nicht mehr weiterentwickelt wird und auch nirgendwo mehr als Download erhältlich ist.
Helios scheint so etwas wie der "große Bruder" von Touchbuddy zu sein.


Mit Helios können Interfaces für DCS und andere Anwendungen einfach erstellt werden.


Das Programm lässt sich zwar auch ohne Touchscreen bedienen, macht dann aber eher wenig Sinn.
