SIMRES

SIMRES is revolutionizing force-on-force training by translating live action into a virtual environment.

A spectrum of sensors and algorithms track where soldiers and weapons are located and oriented in the real world and maps their position in the digital world. Firing events are registered on the software side to calculate ballistics and simulate their effects. This provides the means to model the entire engagement as well as set up exercises, collect data and visualize the battlespace with video game-like graphics.

SIMRES delivers more control, realism and actionable insights than what's available in today's FoF systems.

SIMRES FAST FACTS ___

Tracks where soldiers and weapons are located and oriented in the real world and translates their position in a virtual, gaming environment
Provides a common core system for use in direct, counter defilade and indirect fire weapons
Integrates with existing tactical engagement simulation systems, including I-MILES and VTESS
Minimizes user-equipped hardware on torso, helmet and weapon systems, enabling soldiers to maneuver during training just as they would on the battlefield
Captures the training action and environment virtually, allowing for real-time control, observation and data capture

Product Benefits ___

INCREASED CAPABILITY

Currently, there is a 40% gap of live training capability for the Army, such as not being able to simulate counter defilade engagements, which SIMRES addresses with its single solution across all weapon types.

IMPROVED REALISM

Unlike laser- and optics-based systems, SIMRES is unfettered by line-of-sight limitations. Vegetation, rain, fog and solid structures pose no problems for SIMRES, as the system can simulate ballistics effects in any environment.

REDUCED NEGATIVE TRAINING

SIMRES meets the Army’s edict to “train as you fight and fight as you train” by accurately and realistically replicating FoF events and effects for more efficient training.

MINIMIZED FORM FACTOR

This streamlined hardware solution is less cumbersome and more lightweight, enabling soldiers to operate during training just as they would on the actual battlefield.

UNPARALLED DATA

The live engagement is recorded and visualized in the virtual environment to deliver immersive replay and reporting capabilities for improving performance.
