ACI Launches New Wireless Simulation Platform TrainAsYouFight

Posted on Tuesday 30th November 2010 | Defence

ACI, a provider of virtual reality immersive group simulations for government and military applications, has won a $2.3 million contract for ten of its new TrainAsYouFight™ simulation systems from the Hawaii Army National Guard. ACI is the prime contractor in this third delivery of a growing pilot program that represents a $4.5 million investment to date.

The program has trained more than 1,000 soldiers at the 13-station facility at the 29th Infantry Division Brigade Combat Team Headquarters at Kalaeloa, Hawaii.

ACI’s TrainAsYouFight™ technology is a ground-breaking departure from previous generations of dismounted infantry platforms combining a number of innovations in weapon instrumentation, wireless helmet-mounted displays and portable optical tracking technology.

TrainAsYouFight™ employs 60Ghz WirelessHD video technology to remove man-worn computers and electronic harnesses from the trainee. Traveling at less than 1-millisecond latency and secured by 128-bit encryption, ACI’s WirelessHD video allows utility of faster and cheaper commercial off the shelf CPUs powering the best graphics cards on the market.
