Virtual Combat Training Center SBIR topic: Real-time Assessment of Student State

The Virtual-Combat Training Center consists of an intelligent tutoring system (ITS) that plugs into existing PC-based simulations. This approach will be demonstrated with an existing high-fidelity tactical simulation of combined-arms warfare at thebattalion and company level, called Armored Task Force. The tutor has active knowledge of domain concepts, rules and solutions and develops a student model based on performance, latency, and self-assessment measures. The tutor acts as anobserver/controller providing individualized guidance during the simulation and a diagnostic after action review.
