4. NAVCIITI Project:

• Project Objective: Create a virtual immersive environment where C&C personnel can gain a tactical advantage by observation, planning and distribution of critical military resources at sea, on land, and in the air in "real-time", first in a simulated environment which can extend to C&C in a real battle-field environment. The third year this concept will be extended to the Digital Ship under fire.

• Year-2 Tasks:
  • Identify working simulation models used by NUWC (CTISS)
    Command Technology Information Support Systems
  • Design CAVE displays to interpret NUWC acoustic model results
  • Demonstrate CAVE displays to interpret NUWC acoustic model results
    • NOTE: 1. removed METOC to reflect lower budget (first cut)
                   2. decrease John Kelso time to 50% to reflect (second cut)
• Year-3 Tasks:
  • Evaluate and modify CAVE display interfaces for NUWC acoustic model
  • Design Digitial Ship CAVE Interface (DSCI) for simulation of ship under fire
  • Complete DCSI working prototype and integrate with 3-tier test bed
  • Evaluate DCSI, recommend improvement, and modify
  • Modify DCSI to run on smaller hardware: HMDs, IWBs, and flat panels
  • Through out DCSI developement create collaborative interfaces to work with HMDs, IWBs, and flat panels
