Integrated Remote Battlefield Surveillance System (REMBASS) - AN/PPS-5D Man Machine Interface

The objective in Phase I will be to develop a Universal Ground Surveillance Controller (UGSC) that is in compliance with the JTA Appendix F, and the Weapon System Technical Architecture Working Group guidance. The UGSC will be fully integrated with FBCB2to be designed such that the integration of additonal sensor suites can be performed in a cost effective and timely manner. The development of the UGSC will be based upon TSI's existing controller architecture, expended to meet UGSC specific requirements,and will leverage existing components and other ongoing programs. Military use of the application could signficantly enhance mission performance by co-locating surveillance tasks, reducing the "footprint" in the TOC, by providing a consistent "look andfeel" in a control station, reduce training requiremnts, provide a system easier to upgrade and add capabilities to. Commercial application of the effort would provide a baseline system for the integration of multiple sensor suite combined with theability to fuse information from multiple sources that will enhance situational awareness and confidence of the "correctness" of the displayed data.
