Advanced Soldier Sensor Information System and Technology (ASSIST)
Abstract
The Advanced Soldier Sensor Information System and Technology (ASSIST) effort will develop an integrated information system that exploits soldier-worn sensors to augment the soldier's ability to capture, report, and share information in the field. This includes an integrated system using advanced technologies for processing, digitizing and analyzing information captured and collected by soldier-worn sensors. ASSIST draws heavily on the experiences and lessons learned from previous Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) missions and other surveillance and reconnaissance missions. A baseline system will demonstrate the capture of video/still images together with voice annotations and location-stamping. The advanced system will demonstrate automatic identification and extraction of key objects, events, activities and scenes from soldier-collected data. The system will create knowledge representations that will serve as an input to an array of warfighter products including augmented maps, situational analysis tools, and query and answer capabilities.
