Simulations In Healthcare, Military, And National Security
Exercises Featured
The Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation and Education
Conference is set to open at the Orange County Convention Center in
Orlando, FL Nov. 29. The events' organizers say that more than 600
exhibitors from around the world will showcase the latest in live,
virtual and constructive training technology. More than
18,000 attendees from government, academia, industry and research
institutions are expected to attend the four-day event, which will
also feature dozens of sessions exploring the latest developments
in the world of simulated environments. The conference is being
presented by the National Training and Simulation Association.
Distributed learning environments, combining live training with
virtual and constructive simulations, will be featured in
healthcare, military and national security exercises. This year,
healthcare simulation training, a rapidly expanding field, will be
showcased, with first responder training, battlefield medicine and
virtual ERs among the categories. Constructive environments, able
to predict complex interactions involving thousands of variables,
will be featured, predicting violent weather, disease spread, crop
growth patterns, structural integrity, and many other
applications.
On the military side, the latest in human to human interaction,
involving live and synthetic environments for irregular warfare and
small unit training, will be a major focus. The aim is to create a
fully synthetic battlespace, where the trainee has difficulty
distinguishing the training experience from reality. The latest in
virtual simulations for training to operate complex equipment in
dangerous circumstances is now so advanced that all human senses
are involved in the experience. These totally immersive
environments will be featured all across the exhibit hall
floor.
The event will run from November 29 through December 2.
