Soldier Advanced Video/Audio Cueing System

Next Century Corporation proposes to develop the Integrated Situational Information and Tactical Exploitation (InSITE) system, providing actionable alerts and at-a-glance situational awareness to the warfighter in real time. Our team is augmented by the domain-relevant expertise of General Dynamics C4 Systems (GDC4S) Division, the prime contractor and systems integrator for various U.S. Army's PEO Soldier programs including Land Warrior, Air Warrior, Mounted Warrior, and the Future Force Warrior Advanced Technology demo (ATD). Our solution incorporates leading edge video image processing, data fusion, and predictive modeling techniques to detect, track, and anticipate the movements of entities of interest, seamlessly overlaying this information onto either a video data stream or geospatial display. InSITE also provides valuable analysis and review capabilities that can either be used during a mission or as part of a post-mission hotwash activity. Our key innovations for designing and building the InSITE system are focused on three areas: 1) innovative alert mechanisms and visualization techniques; 2) advanced algorithms and technologies for video image processing, data fusion, and predictive modeling; and, 3) modular, component-based, open architecture for ease of integration, interoperability, and extensibility.
