  • Simulation and Training Solution Using Emerging Virtual Reality
    Hyper Immersion or Just Hype? Opportunities and Challenges in Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality for Military Simulation and Training John Burwell Bohemia Interactive Simulations May 17, 2017 Abstract: Faced with ongoing budget challenges and readiness gaps, military organizations have frequently leveraged commercial technologies to support simulation and training. Where today’s high-end simulators rely on large and expensive display environments using domes and collimated displays, next generation training systems may benefit from emerging VR and AR technologies that enable solutions that are not only orders of magnitude less expensive but also provide higher resolution, a smaller footprint, and general portability. Issues with VR and AR systems for military training present opportunities for further innovation. Simulator sickness, which is linked to frame rate and latency, is an ongoing challenge. Another is user interaction in a virtual environment. With a goal of developing muscle memory, ideally movements and gestures performed in the real world would illicit the same responses in the virtual world. Advances in sensing technologies appear promising, but testing and validation is required. In this paper, we will discuss the opportunities and challenges associated with implementing VR/AR technologies for military training. BISim will share a case study of efforts to integrate VR/AR technologies to produce a high-fidelity F-18 training system. We will outline the results and provide recommendations on where virtual reality implementations

    PROGRAM OF STUDIES 2019-2020 Dear Families, Rising Tide Charter Public School (Rising Tide) offers a choice in public education to families. While Rising Tide has many components that families would expect in a middle and high school, there are also many unique aspects to the program at Rising Tide. Our school culture is centered around trust, honesty, respect and responsibility; our staff and students work together to create an environment that is safe physically, emotionally, and intellectually. Our teachers are devoted to creating the best education possible for all children, including those who have excelled in school as well as children who have struggled in school. At Rising Tide, the adults work hard to know each child. In such an environment, we are able to focus our attention on teaching and learning, where students can develop the self-confidence to take risks, ask questions, and work to find solutions. Central to the identity of our school program is our approach to teaching and learning. At Rising Tide, we use an inquiry and skills-based approach, for both personal and academic growth. The inquiry and skills-based approach is used to support personal growth by encouraging students to reflect, take ownership for their actions, and build skills to resolve conflicts. Questioning is at the heart of the inquiry and skills-based approach. When a challenging social or disciplinary issue arises with a student, the adult takes time to listen to and question the student about the situation. In this way, the student is given an opportunity to reflect upon the situation and is supported in the process of understanding and resolving the issue.

    Maritime de Luna Join TGC New sletter Archive Mere Mortals Group Training Calendar Contact Duathlon May 5, 2014 04/29/2014 STORM IMPACT While putting the finishing touches on the May Newsletter, the greater- Pensacola area unexpectedly fell the victim of an epic thunderstorm which caused serious flooding throughout our community. Many of our TGC members, families, and friends were directly impacted by this storm. The photos and stories have been heart-wrenching, but what is amazing is that our community has reached out to those in need. Just seeing our "TGC family" on the front line helping others dig out, clean up, and start the "rebuild" process has been incredible. For those members that have had storm damage, TGC supports you in weeks and months ahead. Dear Evan, The past few weeks are starting to feel like the beginning of race season. In the last few weeks we have had six regional triathlons, one duathlon, seven different road races and over fifty TGC members representing the club at these events. All of this on the heels of the 118th Boston Marathon this past Monday where TGC had seven athletes participate. WOW... just wow! It is so exciting to see all the smiling faces, fun pictures, fantastic medals, and great weather for these events! Keep up the good work and know that your TGC leadership works very hard to acknowledge the club members in these races! It's supportive for the members, good for the club, and great for the sport. TGC is currently within one month of the beginning of the annual Mere Mortals program.

  • Developing Habitual Patterns
    Developing Habitual Patterns Learning becomes the greatest and, indeed, the unique feature distinguishing man from the rest of the living universe. -MOSHE FELDENKRAIS A newborn comes into the world and is immediately overwhelmed by new sensations. The chill of the air, the warmth of his mother’s touch, and the roughness of a blanket against his skin. This world is vastly different than his mother's womb. Now there is constant stimulation and seemingly no limit to the space around him. Not yet able to crawl or walk, the infant explores with his eyes and ears. He recognizes faces and voices, and soon begins to interact by babbling and mimicking facial expressions. Around four months, his brain has developed some ability to gauge where objects are in space. With his newfound depth perception, he begins to reach and grab for anything in his field of vision that seems interesting. The infant's desire to move toward objects that he can now see, combined with an innate desire to be upright in gravity, motivates him to lift his head off the ground. The muscles in the back of his neck contract, and around five or six months the muscles in his lower back begin to contract as well. Now he can move! Gaining control of the extensor muscles of his neck and back allow the infant to crawl, sit and stand. At this young age, the little boy is already developing learned movement habits; the motor learning process is constantly at work in his nervous system. It begins with experimentation. Each time he tries to climb the stairs he makes conscious, deliberate choices about how to move his arms and legs, and when something works, he repeats it.

PREPARE YOUR STUDENTS FOR THE WORKSHOP AND THE YOUR BRAIN EXHIBIT WITH THESE ACTIVITIES THAT ENGAGE THEIR THINKING ABOUT THE BRAIN AND THE COMPLEXITY OF THE TASKS IT PERFORMS. DISCUSSION 1: WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR BRAIN? TIME: 15 minutes Activate students’ prior knowledge about the brain and engage GOAL: their curiosity about the brain’s structure and function. • Challenge students to think of things they know about the brain. Make a class list of facts they know (or believe to be true) about the brain. • What things do they wonder or want to know more about? Make another list of questions they have about the brain. • Before visiting the museum, encourage each student to choose a question from the list about which they’d like to find more information during the visit. Save the lists of facts and questions and revisit them after the field trip. Pre-visit Resources Your Brain: Memory and Multitasking DISCUSSION 2: WHAT DOES YOUR BRAIN DO?

In cannot be compared with diving in most of the other seas and addition to this and Ghost Diving, we are regularly asked oceans. The North Sea is where the environmental problems to use our approach and skills for other organizations and caused by lost fishing gear came to my attention and I never their goals. For example, we carried out various assignments let go.
