AIP - Embedded Training Solutions
Our Embedded Training Solutions Group provides technologies, solutions and services for supporting a wide range of in-situ operator training on embedded hardware, for systems incorporating Electro Optical devices. The groups core competencies fall into the following categories:
Leveraging our wealth of experience in image processing and tracking systems, the Embedded Training Group have delivered a number of embedded procedural training systems for naval weapon operators which are currently in use with the US Navy and the UK Royal Navy. The Challenge Classroom and even trailer-based training systems have one fundamental drawback. The trainees have to leave their control stations in order to do their training, often using interfaces that are close to, but not the same as, those found at their control station. This results in reduced effectiveness due to travel to and from the classrooms, which in turn limits the frequency of training sessions leading to a longer time over which skills, learned during training exercises, can fade and become ineffective. The Solution Initial embedded training systems are focused on procedural training but as the technology advances it is likely that these systems will evolve to become tactical trainers or even play a role in front line mission rehearsal. By applying the knowledge gained from a history of developing embedded image processing systems for Electro Optical (EO) systems, our company has developed an embedded training system, SIVET, that enables systems operators to train on board ship at their normal station. SIVET generates the simulated EO video, normally supplied by the EO sensors, and interacts with the various controls and tracking sub systems in a manner that is almost invisible to the operator. SIVET based embedded training systems are currently being deployed by the Royal Navy and the US Navy over a wide range of ships, simulating different weapon systems.

Custom Integration We recognize that installing embedded training systems is a complicated process and often requires considerable additional effort to ensure that the training system operates effectively for each different type of station. As such we offer an integration service that enables us to customize the training system to meet the unique demands of our customers. Example customization services include:
Next Generation Some of the new capabilities include:
