VIRTE

Last updated

VIRtual Training and Environments (VIRTE) was an Office of Naval Research Science and Technology program from 2002 to 2007 led by CDR Dylan Schmorrow. [1] It was funded under the Capable Manpower Future Naval Capability (FNC) and produced research in Virtual Environments. The VIRTE program was divided into three related demonstrations. Demo 1 developed virtual simulators for the LCAC, the EFV, and a helicopter. Demo 2 concentrated on technologies to support Immersive Infantry Training. Demo 3 developed laptop based simulators for a wide variety of USMC platforms and was fielded as part of the Deployable Virtual Training Environment (DVTE). [2]
