  1. Soldier Systems Technology RoadmapHuman and System Integration Workshop Human and System Integration:Challenge of the Requirement Maj Jon Herbert DLR 5-6 Project Director Integrated Soldier System 21 Sept. 2010

  2. OUTLINE • DLR and the Soldier • Requirements Genesis • The Soldier System • Soldier Today • Challenge of the Requirement

  3. DLR Mission To provide operational direction for the acquisition and management of equipment that contributes to the generation and sustainment of a multi-purpose combat capable Land Force. Represent the USER!

  4. Requirements

  5. The Soldier System The System is the Integration of everything the soldier • Wears • Carries • Consumes for enhanced individual and collective (small unit) capability within their national command control structure.” I should have joined the Navy!

  6. Low Situation Awareness + Target Acquisition + low BCID DAGR + Vector Binos + IR Patch Load Carriage THE SOLDIER OF TODAY Navigation capabilities Mounted Soldier Dismounted Soldier PRR Voice only – Short but Non Secure comms Comms at Section/pl Low range comms with higher High-tech capabilities inside vehicle PRC-152/148 Comms with veh • Power • 21 batteries (AA and CR123) + Spares Hearing Protection

  7. Damn Humans….. Dedicated HF components All systems undergo User trials with soldiers from across the country Must obtain 80% User acceptance Feedback Mechanisms Unsatisfactory Condition Report Chain of Command Current User Trials et al TCB CCMFR Hybrid Shirt

  8. ISSP Networked Soldier - CYCLE 1 Conceptual Tactical Display Enhanced hearing protection Communications Soldier’s computer • With : • Section/Platoon Battlefield management Target Acquisition Navigation BCID (passive) Training module Integrated geo-reference (GPS) • Integrated GPS • Digital magnetic compass Close CombatModular Fighting Rig

  9. Soldier System Integration Vision Load carriage Bionics/Robotics Power Anthropometrics Soldier – Vehicle integrated Mobility Firepower with fire detect and control Tough Soldier not included

  10. ISS - Human and System Integration Validation Dedicated HF team Outsource work to H S I 14 week UAPE part of Bid Evaluation User testing is the only (and best) way to measure usability/user acceptance and many HF criteria in the SOR mitigate project risk and help to ensure ultimate project success The Navy doesn't get all this cool S#*@!

  11. Soldier Demo – Key Integration Challenges Weight/volume Load carriage Mobility vs Protection Power Consumption Nature Anthropometrics Soldier – Vehicle Interoperability Communications Target Detect-Discriminate-Inform-Prosecute
