U.S. Army to Use First Fully Immersive Virtual Simulation Training for Soldiers

Posted on June 2, 2011 in General News,

The U.S. Army will be using Intelligent Decisions, Inc.’s new Dismounted Soldier Training System, the first-ever, fully immersive virtual simulation training program for soldiers.
The new training system will allow U.S. soldiers, leaders and units to train in a virtual environment to increase the quality of instruction and combat preparedness, while reducing traditional training expenses associated with large-scale instruction facilities. Implementation of the system will be led by the Army’s Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (PEO STRI). Intelligent Decisions will spearhead development of the $57 million system with key partners Advanced Simulation Research, AVT Simulation, L-3 Link, and RealTime Immersive.  Read more: http://www.intelligent.net/idweb/company/dismountedsoldier.html
