Vehicle IT Focus Day: Monday, November 16, 2009
- Vehicle IT Focus Day
- Main Summit Day 1
- Main Summit Day 2
- Vehicle Armor Focus Day
7:30 - 8:00 Registration And Coffee
Discover the latest generation of intelligent military display technology
8:00 - 11:00 Enhanced Situational Awareness Using Intelligent Display Technology
Enhanced situational awareness allows vehicle crews to see outside in day or night while under armor, enables improved maneuvering in urban and complex terrains, and allows vehicle crews to detect, track and engage dismounted and vehicular threats. The display technology enabling this capability will be presented along with the associated system level trades. Embedded real time image processing technology will also be discussed and demonstrated. In addition, embedded georeferenced image and event recording will be demonstrated.
How you will benefit:
- Gain an understanding of intelligent military display technology
- Delve into the fundamental trades and issues associated with enabling armored vehicles with wide field-of-view situation awareness capability
- Gain insight into the use of advanced image processing techniques to enhance situation awareness
What you will learn about:
- Hands on demonstrations of the latest generation of intelligent military display technology
- Real time image processing overview and demonstrations
- Location based event recording demonstrations
Lead the way with full functionality of GPS applications
11:15 - 2:15 Warfighter Data Connection Inside Military Vehicles
Lunch will be served
The global positioning system is integral to mission completion on the a-symmetrical battlefield. In a combat situation, information can make the difference between a successful operation and a failure. When soldiers are wearing Land Warrior systems, for example, their positions are displayed on the map in the Stryker vehicles, as well as on the Land Warrior system. When warfighters go into armored vehicles, it is all the more crucial for soldiers to maintain that data connection. How, therefore, is this connection maintained? How does the warfighter remain fully operational in order to achieve mission success?
How you will benefit:
- Discover in detail the essential GPS needs of vehicle operators
- Learn from technical experts about achieving optimal GPS signal availability
- Understand how to obtain a continuous and complete picture of the battlefield in order to provide enhanced situational awareness
What you will learn about:
- Solution to real-time soldier location
- Repeater design, installation, and use
- Proven repeater solutions to enable full functionality of GPS applications with Humvees, MRAPs, and LAVs

Gain insight into total vehicle integration technologies
2:30 - 4:00 Using Quantitative Analytics to Solve Complex Vehicle Integration Challenges
Total System Engineering Analysis designs flexibility into the planning process and provides a transparent mechanism for enabling the program manager and other decision makers to make staged, informed and aligned decisions throughout the entire system design process. This approach provides a comprehensive procurement strategy, speeds up the overall design-build process and offers improved predictability of procurement/construction cost and final performance. This session will discuss quantifiable engineering design strategies for complex systems by inherently designing in flexibility to meet current and future operational demands .
How you will benefit:
- Learn how you can capture a qualitative understanding of the complex engineering system for the formal requirement process review of the interdependencies of key components of current vehicle market
- Understand the logical, tractable, and graphical representation of solutions for operational and functional requirements for analysis of ground vehicles
What you will learn about:
- How to use Quantitative Analytics to provide a truly game changing approach to forecasting, analysis and system engineering
