BAE Systems acquired Topaz Intelligence as part of the Ball Aerospace acquisition, and is now part of the company's Modeling & Simulation Solutions business.
VRAI and BAE Systems are using XR and AI for tailored pilot training, helping determine the optimum balance between live and synthetic training a trainee needs.
BAE Systems’ Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV) is the US Marine Corps’ next generation vehicle designed to move Marines from ship to shore. The ACV is a full replacement for the aging Amphibious Assault Vehicle, the ACV will be the primary means of tactical mobility for the Marine infantry battalion at sea and ashore.
Three companies with military training expertise are working together to combine their technology and experience, which they believe will revolutionise training for the military forces of the future.
Attendees at the booth can enjoy demonstrations of extended reality (XR) training devices and interact with experts from both companies to benefit from their insights and knowledge.
The partnership between the two entities will help to deliver scalable, interoperable, and immersive collective training solutions to military personnel across services, domains and allies, whilst also allowing investigation of wider applications.
RYAN AEROSPACE’s basic concept demonstrator will show how (using mixed reality technology) the trainee can see hands in the cockpit and interact with controls and instruments of their aircraft whilst everything seen outside the cockpit is virtual.
Connecting into the three platforms simultaneously via satellite communications, the QinetiQ, Inzpire and BAE Systems team enabled the delivery of the synthetic collective training environment to the Royal Navy.
With ongoing war in Europe and global tensions rising, there was a serious edge to IT²EC 2023 in Rotterdam. MS&T Special Correspondent Andy Fawkes attended.
