It allows instructors to monitor how trainees are reacting to training. It supplies them with objective evidence to refine and deliver more efficient and effective training scenarios. It does this through making it easy to add new wearable technologies into simulation experiences and then to use the data from these devices to understand better how individuals and teams are responding to the training in real-time. <\/p>\n<p>Phase 2 of the <abbr title=\"Java Augmented Reality and Virtual Stealth Technology\">JARViST<\/abbr> framework proposes to work with academia to better understand the measurements and displays that can be employed to give feedback to trainees. The development of an \u2018in-action review\u2019 tool that allows the modification of training based on feedback from the wearable technology worn by trainees would also be explored.<\/p>\n<p>Charles Cranstoun, <abbr title=\"Java Augmented Reality and Virtual Stealth Technology\">JARViST<\/abbr> Project Manager, QinetiQ says:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"last-child\"><abbr title=\"Centre for Defence Enterprise\">CDE<\/abbr> funding has allowed the development of <abbr title=\"Java Augmented Reality and Virtual Stealth Technology\">JARViST<\/abbr> complementing a wide variety of simulation-based training research projects, allowing us to enhance our existing offerings to customers. The funded development is a foundation for wearable monitoring technologies to be easily incorporated into simulation data providing greater insight and control to simulation based training.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>QinetiQ is a British defence, science and technology organisation.
