I/ITSEC 2007

NGRAIN at the Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation and Education Conference (I/ITSEC)

NGRAIN Booth #1439

There is a lot happening in the NGRAIN booth for 2007. Stop by for a demo, a presentation, or a cup of coffee!

Demos

Visit the NGRAIN booth to see how 3D virtual task trainers are deployed across the training continuum to accelerate learning. View firsthand how NGRAIN’s virtual weapon trainers are being used by military organizations such as the ARNG, U.S. Marine Corps, and the U.S. Air Force to train Soldiers despite limited availability of weapons.

NGRAIN is also showcasing version 4.0, an upgrade of its commercial-off-the-shelf software (COTS) tools.  Check out its new capabilities and enhancements!

Wii Game Station

Test your skills at our Wii game station, where you can virtually complete a maintenance task using a Nintendo Wii™ control. The person with the fastest time will win a Nintento Wii gaming station!
