TALENT MANAGEMENT


VIRTUAL BALLISTICS


Researchers at the Simulation and Training Technology Center hope to replace the I-MILES program with an eBullet system, pictured here, that will provide ballistic realism that’s nearly indistinguishable from live action. The eBullet system will correlate a 3D virtual trajectory in a digital terrain map, such as One World Terrain, for each shot fired and provide casualty feedback to the Soldier.

static objects and dynamic interactions between objects, includ- ing real and virtual.


We are also working to improve live training by finding alter- natives to the Instrumentable – Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System, or I-MILES. Built on technologies devel- oped in the 1970s and 1980s, I-MILES is used to support live force-on-force and force-on-target training at Army training centers worldwide. While I-MILES has been enhanced through- out the years, laser-based systems are limited in their ability to


realistically represent lethal effects during live exercises. For exam- ple, a shrub or cardboard box provides effective cover from a laser hit but would be useless in a firefight. Our team is seeking ways to more accurately depict the effects of direct and indirect fire and facilitate training on more sophisticated or longer-range weapons that can’t easily be integrated into a live training exercise.


Another goal at the Simulation and Training Technology Center is to demonstrate a dual-use eBullet system that will simulate tactical engagements for blue forces (friendly) and opposing
