SAN MATEO, Calif., July 30, 2009 – Stottler Henke Associates, Inc., today appear the accolade of a two-year $730,000 arrangement with the U.S. Army to advance RADX, a software apparatus for assembly basic training demonstrations. The arrangement will accredit advisers to rapidly actualize demonstrations that use 3D computer cartoon to allegorize teaching points. RADX will aswell encode and administer architecture guidelines, ashore in the acquirements sciences, to advice ensure that the demonstrations accommodate able training.
Demonstrations appearance how tasks should be performed and the after-effects of assuming them incorrectly. They can be acclimated aural classroom training, anchored training, and broadcast acquirements to advanced acquirements of operational abilities and tactics. Implemented application computer bold technology, basic demonstrations are a cost-effective addition to training simulations that can crave big-ticket accouterments or software development. These demonstrations can be authored already and broadcast broadly to allotment new tactics, best practices, and acquaint learned.
It is difficult to actualize able basic training demonstrations application absolute methods and tools. Authors have to be technically accomplished in application video alteration tools, and they have to ensure that the demonstrations are instructionally effective. RADX will abridge the development of demonstrations at two levels. First, it will accomplish it easier to create, edit, and animadversion demonstrations after acute all-encompassing video alteration expertise. When chip with a bold engine or basic environment, RADX will accommodate advanced, higher-level assembly capabilities that are tailored to the training across and basic environment. For example, RADX will advice authors with the automated and advisory architecture aspects of authoritative the basic ambiance by automatically selecting or suggesting adapted perspectives that allegorize the important behaviors or contest in anniversary scene.
In addition, RADX will advice advisers administer advisory architecture guidelines to assure that the demonstrations accommodate able acquirements experiences. For example, the assembly apparatus will use architecture guidelines to ensure that it is bright what is accident in the demonstration, which accomplishments are actual and incorrect, which avatars accord to which roles, and area and if the key decisions and accomplishments occur. Because the use of 3D cartoon for creating training demonstrations is new, absolute guidelines do not yet exist. During this project, Stottler Henke advisers will analyze applied guidelines that call how demonstrations can appoint the admirers and advance breath learning, area they fit aural a plan of instruction, and which kinds of annotations, cues and perspectives advanced learning. These will serve as both a accepted advertence and a framework that guides the development of able demonstrations.
The aboriginal applications of this assembly technology will abutment the Army’s training needs. For example, RADX can augment armor training curricula with basic demonstrations that appearance able and abortive armor approach to trainees who will again administer them. RADX technology can be acclimatized to actualize basic training demonstrations to advise any action or accomplishment that can be depicted in a game-based basic ambiance such as aggressive operations in burghal areas, law enforcement, and emergency response.
Founded in 1988, Stottler Henke Associates, Inc. applies artificial intelligence and added beat software technologies to break problems that baffle band-aid application acceptable approaches. The aggregation delivers able software solutions for apprenticeship and training, planning and scheduling, ability administration and discovery, accommodation support, and software development. In 2006, Stottler Henke was the accountable of a NASA "Hallmarks of Success" video contour for its plan developing and after commercializing beat planning and training software systems. Stottler Henke accustomed a 2004 "Brandon Hall Excellence in Learning" accolade for avant-garde technology. Stottler Henke was called one of the "top 100" companies authoritative a cogent appulse on the aggressive training industry by Military Training Technology magazine, and in 2005 accustomed a Blue Ribbon acquainted it as a aggregation that leads the industry in innovation.
