Insight Sales Increase in 2006

Sales of DT Media’s innovative Insight recognition system have continued during 2006 with deliveries being made so far to 14 users worldwide. Insight, which was developed to address the high level of fratricide (or so-called “Friendly Fire) incidents, is the only off-the-shelf multilingual, user updateable, network enabled recognition training system in the world. So far versions of Insight (and NATO CITS, which uses Insight as its basis) have been delivered in English, Arabic, French, German, Italian, Spanish, and Danish.

In the summer of 2006 DT Media completed delivery of an Insight Corporate User License to a major Army in the Far East .

In late 2006 additional Arabic Insight systems will be delivered to a customer in the Middle East .

 

 


Further orders for Fleetman

During 2006 additional Fleetman systems were delivered to the Royal Navy’s new Waterfront Learning Centres (WLCs) at Faslane and Portsmouth Naval Bases in the UK . As part of the delivery to the Royal Navy additional features were added to Fleetman to allow it to be used for Mine Warfare training.

In late 2006 Fleetman will be delivered to a major Middle East Navy for use in a new training facility. In addition DT Media is working with the Amel Corporation of Canada to create an Officer Of the Watch Trainer (OOWT) linked to Amel’s Generic Warfare Training System (GWTS) for the same customer.

 

 

 


First Arabic Insight Customer

 

In late April 2005 DT Media Ltd received a Contract to supply the bilingual Arabic / English version of its well proven Insight Recognition Training System for a Middle East customer. This new version of Insight will permit Arabic-speaking users to take full advantage of Insight’s powerful aircraft, land vehicle and naval recognition training tools.

 

 

 

 

 

 


Insight Selected as Basis of NATO’s Combat Identification Training System (NATO CITS)

 

In January 2005 DT Media Ltd was awarded a Contract by NATO’s Allied Command Transformation (NATO ACT) to develop the Prototype of the NATO Combat Identification Training System (NATO CITS), which will be based on the latest version of Insight. The NATO CITS system will be used in a major Combat Identification exercise to be held later in 2005.

 

 

 

 

 


DT Media Participation in I/ITSEC Live Event 6 to 9 Dec 2004

 

During the Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation, and Education Conference (I/ITSEC), held at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida in December 2004, the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Joint Forces Command (US JFCOM) demonstrated a step forward in using multiple technologies to provide realistic training during four co-sponsored virtual training demonstrations, called the Joint Virtual Training Special Event (JVTSE).

 

The JVTSE Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) simulation event involved 33 simulators located at I/ITSEC and as far afield as Arizona and California. DT Media was the only UK-based participant invited to take part in the JVTSE event with both our Fleetman and Insight systems. Fleetman was linked into the exercise using a DIS/HLA interface/bridge to simulate an amphibious task force consisting of a San Antonio Class LPD, 2 Arleigh Burkes, an Oliver Hazard Perry, 2 LCAC hovercraft, amphibious armoured personnel carriers (APCs), and an SH-60 Seahawk helicopter operating in the anti-surface warfare (ASuW) role attacking a hostile corvette.

 

Meanwhile Insight was integrated with the AFSERS UAV simulation to aid in the identification of land vehicles detected by Predator UAVs. JVTSE was a huge success and both Fleetman and Insight interacted flawlessly with the other participants in 4 public demonstrations.

Fleetman Accepted into the Royal Navy with Flying Colours ! 

UK simulation and training specialist DT Media has recently handed over its Fleetman training system to Britain's Royal Navy. Fleetman has been included in the demonstration phase of the Royal Navy's Waterfront Training and Education Centre (WTEC) at Devonport Naval Base. The WTEC will allow the delivery of Targeted Employment Modules at the waterfront in order to minimise the amount of separated service for naval personnel. Later in 2004 Fleetman will replace the current Fleetwork simulation at HMS Collingwood. 

The 'Fleetman' name describes a family of naval trainers that was originally designed to facilitate Officer of the Watch, Navigator, Yeoman, Flight Deck Officer and Action Speed Tactical Training. However its functionality, according to DT Media Managing Director Geoff Tompson, has 'exceeded' customer expectations. A whole range of variants covering many aspects of naval training is now under development. Fleetman may be linked over a LAN or WAN to permit users at dispersed sites to be trained in a common scenario, using distributed interactive simulation techniques. The software will also run on a notebook PC, permitting training to be continued whilst at sea with exercise results being recorded for relay back to a shore-based training centre for assessment. 

Fleetman will be a core component of the WTEC training system and its only real-time simulation module. It can also be linked to DT Media’s Insight Combat ID system with its platform centric emitter and weapons databases to create all manner of tactical and part task trainers. The 3D simulation engine used in Fleetman may also be used to stimulate embedded training software to add further realism to training during operational deployments. 

Following rollout of the system to the Royal Navy, its launch customer, further capability insertion is planned later in 2004 for Portsmouth and Faslane in Scotland. 


Cameron Balloons of Bristol has recently activated an Internet-based 3D parts catalogue for users of its Sirocco propane burner. The 3D parts catalogue, which was created by DT Media as part of a Broadbandshow initiative, is accessed over a Broadband Web-site incorporating an e-merchant system. DT Media’s 3D Parts Catalogue and Maintenance Manual uses leading-edge software design to allow users to visualise, dismantle, re-assemble and manipulate 3D models of complex equipment such as aircraft, car, marine or domestic components. The 3D models are linked to parts lists and associated maintenance procedures. DT Media offers state-of-the-art turnkey 3D parts catalogue and maintenance procedures for use over the Internet or CD-ROM based.


In the summer of 2003 DT Media moved into larger offices at Steamer Quay on the banks of the River Dart in Totnes, South Devon. This move is in response to the growing demand for DT Media's products, which include our Fleetman and Insight families, our innovative Web-based 3D parts and maintenance catalogue and promotional animations. Since starting trading in January 2000 the Company has developed a reputation for customer care and the new premises will permit significant expansion of our simulation, training and promotional animations business. 


 

 

 

On the 11th November 2002 DT Media was recommended for BS EN ISO 9001:2000 covering the following scope of business:

‘Design, development, supply, installation and commissioning for MoD and civilian users of simulation software, equipment emulations, promotional animations, 3D visualization, low cost training devices (including the INSIGHT recognition system and FLEETMAN naval trainer), interactive computer-based training modules, and instructor-led courses.’


The Royal Australian Navy took delivery of the Insight recognition system in mid 2002 for use at HMAS Watson.

With effect from the 12th July 2002 DT Media joined the Raven Alliance. Formed to deliver excellence in Electronic Warfare (EW) through the supply and coordinated support of high quality and affordable solutions, the Raven Alliance offers a single point of access to seven of the UK’s leading specialist independent EW companies. With a wealth of experience in the areas of EW countermeasures design, simulation, stimulation, modelling, analysis, logistic support and training, the Raven Alliance has added a new dimension to EW consultancy, training and support solutions.

Early in 2002 DT Media provided an emulation of a helicopter simulator for the UK's Defence Export Services Organisation ( DESO ) stands at the Pacific 2002 International Maritime Conference in Sydney Australia, and at Asian Aerospace in Singapore. By modifying our Fleetman software, DT Media created a flyable simulator enjoyed by hundreds of visitors to the shows. At Asian Aerospace members of the public queued for up to 2 hours to “fly” a Merlin helicopter from the deck of a Type 23 frigate, HMS Albion and HMS Ocean.
