Immersive Space Operations Training in Extended Reality
Daniel Stouch, Sean Guarino, Dan Duggan, Susan Latiff, Robert Hyland, Kimberly Brady Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation, and Education Conference (I/ITSEC), Orlando, Florida (29 November 2023) The training of next-generation space operators for both commercial and military capabilities relies largely on analog physical models and PowerPoint lectures. Consequently, new operators do not often fully grasp the fundamentals […]
Toward Intuitive Understanding of Complex Astrodynamics Using Distributed Augmented Reality
Advanced Maui Optical and Space Surveillance Technologies Conference (AMOS), Maui, HI (September 2021) Stouch, D., Balasuriya, U., Hyland, R., Bird, L., Jenkins, M., and Kingsley, C. Existing capabilities and future possibilities can help multiple users build an intuitive understanding of complex astrodynamics in a collaborative real time virtual environment using an augmented reality (AR) space […]
Increased Space Situational Awareness through Augmented Reality Enhanced Common Operating Pictures
Jenkins, M., Catto, G., and Bird, L. Presented at the Advanced Maui Optical and Space Surveillance Technologies Conference (AMOS), Wailea, HI (September 2018) Support for space situational awareness (SSA) is required to enable military commanders and space operations center operators to maintain an advantage over our adversaries in the space enterprise. Well-designed visualization and human-computer […]
An Integrated Threat-based Approach to Intuitive Space Battle Management Understanding
Stouch, D., Jenkins, M., McCaffrey, J., and Catto, G. Air Force Research Laboratory Space Situational Awareness Conference, Kihei, HI (September 2018) To effectively conduct battle management command and control (BMC2) in space, operators need to understand the space environment well beyond what is required for traffic management that predicts potential conjunctions. Operators need to know […]
A Probabilistic Approach to Improve Offensive and Defensive Space Control Course of Action Effectiveness
Stouch, D., Gorman, J., and Ruttenberg, B. Air Force Research Laboratory Space Situational Awareness Conference, Kihei, HI (September 2017) Satellites are continually at risk of collision and subject to malicious activity. We must understand the nature (i.e., severity, location, source, timing) of these threats to protect our space assets and respond effectively. A rapid, comprehensive […]
