Demos

SHIPMATE/STRMS/ASEV — Supporting fleet readiness from schoolhouse to deck plate —

A performance measurement suite that pools and assesses data from (Navy) training and operational environments to close the loop between learning and performance. Agnostic tools and advanced analytics link trainee qualifications and learning in the schoolhouse to performance measurement on the deck plate to provide commanders insights on proficiencies and readiness for staffing and teaming; needs and gaps for instructors and trainees, and inputs to the adaptive learning ecosystem for continuous Sailor improvement. 

TeamVitals/JADC2 — How do you know your JADC2 team is ready? —
TeamVitals/JADC2 taps into largely invisible comms and network activity to provide a wholistic picture of multi-team joint operations. Unique visualization and metrics assess, diagnosis, and pinpoint gaps in communication and coordination to inform leadership of team states and guidance for improving multi-domain operations. 

CLEAR: RAD – VR behavioral fidelity for mission rehearsal —
An augmented reality-as-a-service that provides deep behavioral fidelity for mission rehearsal in radiological and other hazardous incidents.  Physics-based models replicate radiation, O2, and toxic gases, instruments and sensors, and human factors to accurately test, train, and evaluate cognitive workload and decision-making proficiencies across a wide range of scenarios and settings.  

USAF Booth 1539: DART Simulator. The Driving-based Adaptive Research Testbed (DART) is an experimental testbed utilizing game-based development technology to support rapid research of adaptation strategies and sensor evaluation. The Gaming Research Integration for Learning Laboratory (GRILL®) team which includes Aptima has been researching methods for making adaptive training more effective across the Air Force.

Avatar Booth 1420: SIA Immersive AR Job Aid. The Simplified Intelligent Augmented Reality (SIA) demonstration will show the capability of the immersive (Augmented Reality) job-aiding solution with performance assessment capability. Developed by AVATAR Partners and Aptima, SIA is an XR job aid that augments the on-the-job performance of maintenance professionals. SIA also incorporates a training system mode that enables users to learn and increase proficiency of maintenance skills in the immerse environment.
