D2 TEAM-Sim, DiSTI team for 3D training
DiSTI and D2 TEAM-Sim have entered into a partnership to develop high fidelity 3D virtual training solutions for the US Army and other Department of Defense customers, DiSTI announced on 19 March.
The companies are collaborating to develop and integrate new interactive 3D content within D2 TEAM-Sim’s Distributed Instruction Framework (DIF) platform to increase learner engagement across the US Army enterprise.
The DIF platform will allow rapid development and scalable delivery of multi-level interactive multimedia instruction by leveraging one centralised content library. The approach ensures standardisation across the enterprise, maximises reuse and simplifies accreditation management with sharable content object reference model-compliant integration for both the army learning management system and the Enterprise Lifelong Learning Center.
By leveraging the DIF platform with VE Studio content, US Army course developers will be able publish courses that incorporate interactive 3D content without having to write software code and deliver the training to soldiers anytime, anywhere and on any device.
John Lau, president of D2 TEAM-Sim, said: ‘Since the US Army has purchased our DIF platform, we have experienced increased demand for expanding the use of the platform with new engaging, interactive simulation relevant to the diverse training and learning objectives required by the army. D2 TEAM-Sim’s partnership with DiSTI will fill that gap.’
