 In this issue of industry trends, let's take a look at how ALVA AR technology is being applied in the military defense field.

Widely Implementing AR Technology in Military Defense

AR technology, as an advanced digital technology, can further unleash the potential of data elements and has a profound impact on various domains in the new stage of digital development. In the military defense field, in 2021, the Beijing Electronic Engineering Institute of the Aerospace Science and Industry Group Corporation released a military demand announcement for the research of "Virtual Twin-Metaverse Collaborative Modeling and Simulation Methods." This announcement combines military defense with metaverse-related technologies such as AR, opening up new directions for the intelligent development of the military defense industry.

With the gradual maturity of AR technology, it is bringing revolutionary changes to military defense. Whether it is in training and command, equipment maintenance and repair, or simulation training and tactical planning, AR technology plays an important role. As an expert in industrial AR applications, ALVA Systems has cooperated with military manufacturing enterprises, exploring scenarios such as research and development design, operation and maintenance management, and assembly guidance for national key instruments like military aircraft. These efforts further promote the digital transformation of the defense industry, assisting in reducing costs and increasing efficiency.

Application Scenarios of AR Technology in the Military Defense Industry

▶ AR + IETM Manual

As an essential "support guarantee" in military defense products, Interactive Electronic Technical Manual (IETM), when combined with ALVA AR technology, can transform electronic information such as operating instructions, assembly instructions, maintenance suggestions, and troubleshooting guides into visual virtual content. This provides more intuitive and vivid tutorials, allowing users to learn and understand relevant knowledge more quickly while reducing operational errors and failures.

▶ AR Paperless Process Assembly Guidance

For complex component assembly tasks in military aircraft and other equipment, ALVA AR applications can simulate the assembly process to identify assembly problems and errors in advance and make necessary modifications and adjustments.

Additionally, by overlaying virtual guidance content and feedback prompts on real equipment, users can engage in real-time hands-on practice, making the assembly guidance smoother, the training process more dynamic and easy to understand, and the training outcomes more significant.

▶ AR Military Equipment Research and Development

The research and development phase of military equipment often requires a significant amount of time and financial resources. ALVA AR applications can simulate the latest research findings, presenting the panoramic view of scientific research design, manufacturing assembly, and subsequent maintenance in advance. It also enables real-time collaborative design review for research personnel and design engineers to observe and evaluate design proposals and models, effectively saving research and development costs.

Furthermore, addressing the high-security requirements of military defense, ALVA Systems offers users the autonomous AR content creation platform "ALVA Editor." Users can easily create AR content through the Editor, ensuring the data security of enterprises more effectively.
