Tech Solutions
Abstract
TechSolutions develops rapid response Science and Technology (S&T) solutions to immediate Fleet/Force needs identified by individual Sailors at the deckplate level and Marines in the field. TechSolutions links warfighters to the government science and technology community to develop needed technologies as quickly as possible. Sailors, Marines and Science Advisors submit their issues throughout the year via the TechSolutions web portal. Projects are initiated directly from such requests and a prototype solution is developed collaboratively with the warfighter. Within 12 months the prototype is delivered into the hands of the warfighter and demonstrated in an operationally relevant context. Historical examples of technology requests have included an enhancement to weapons training for security forces that was satisfied by development of an Augmented Reality headset and instrumented weapons. A example is a request for automated video recording of interactions at sea that was satisfied by the development of 360 degree visible and infrared cameras and DVR for quickly generating reports with video documentation to transmit up the chain of command.
