Advanced Soldier Sensor Information System and Technology (ASSIST)
Program Manager: Dr. Mari Maeda
Objectives:
ASSIST program will demonstrate an integrated information system that will allow ground soldiers to collect, disseminate, and visualize key information in the battlefield. Novel approaches in the following area are stressed:
- Light-weight, wearable multi-sensor collection device.
- Distributed data server/dissemination architecture suited for tactical networks (e.g. low bandwidth usage, tolerance of outages).
- Indexing by location, time, soldier activities, keywords.
- Highly intuitive user interface design and visualization interface.
TIGR (Tactical Ground Reporting) System has been demonstrated as part of the ASSIST Program and is a multimedia reporting system targeting users at Company level and below.
