AVIS-MS: Advanced Visual and Instruction Systems for Maintenance Support

FA8650-05-2-6649

Complexity, customization, and packaging of military platforms and systems increase maintenance difficulty at the same time as the available pool of skilled technical personnel may be shrinking. In this environment maintenance training, technical order presentation, and flight-line operational practice may need to adopt “just-in-time” procedural aids. Moreover, the realities of real-world maintenance may not permit the hardware indulgences and rigid controls of laboratory settings for visualization and training systems, and at the same time the actual activities of maintainers will challenge requirements for portable or wearable devices. This project investigates technologies that maybe used in the maintenance of Air Force equipment.
