Enabling Sim-C2 interoperability
Experience predictable and reliable integration with VCCI, your trusted middleware connecting third party simulators and military command and control applications. Unlock data translation and coordination services tailored to your requirements.
Data collection and analysis
- Capture simulation data from a variety of standard tools such as ABACUS, JCATS, JSAF, and all VBS versions. VCCI delivers a consolidated SIM record of all events including entity data.
- CURSIT support via an embedded GIS engine enabling a common operating picture (COP) for all involved systems
- ORBAT support allowing users to work with simulation and C2 entities in the correct force organization
- After action review (AAR) functionality that enables users to leverage military event data captures to extract lessons learned
Precision data and simulation control
- Simulation control and monitoring to interact with simulation to the right level of detail.
- Command and control (C2) simulation services for data fill, including entity locations, status and additional data, uploaded in real-time.
- Data flow control to allow users to customize inbound and outbound data feeds in order to match exercise tempo and expected level of exercise fidelity
- Detailed mapping and routing at the entity level allowing for proper synchronization of SIM and C2 disparate entities
Built-in C2 efficencies
- C2 control feature collection allowing the retrieval of control features defined in the C2 system
- C2 control feature transfer to SIMs which avoids simulation controllers from having to manually enter the same data in the SIM(s) that has been entered into the C2 system
- Support for numerous military protocol standards including STANAG 4607 (GMTI), STANAG 4609 (Video), 4586 (UAV Control), STANAG 1287 (DIS), OTH Gold, Link 16
- Embedded DIS routing for optimum exercise data management and control
Flexibility in data presentation
- Configurable user interface to support exercise location layout
- Value-added simulation capabilities that provide data to fill gaps in synthetic training environment, including:
- Radar model support to generate radar stimulation
- Disaggregate simulation objects down to the individual entity levels

Royal Canadian Navy: augmented reality sea training
Calian, in partnership with the Royal Canadian Navy, developed a mixed reality training app using Microsoft Hololens 2, integrating real and virtual tech for RAS operation training. Features include spectator view, role-playing, networked multiplayer environment, and TASR for speech recognition-based training. The app syncs with real-world equipment at Windsor Park.
The MR trainer delivered success faster and cheaper than the alternatives, improving the overall training experience.
