ATARS
Advanced Tactical Augmented Reality System
The World’s First Outdoor, Airborne Augmented Reality Training System.
The ATARS Helmet-Mounted Display (HMD) combines world-leading AR optics, low-latency sensors, and a full mission management software suite into an airworthy package that can be adapted to fly in any military aircraft.
But the ATARS solution goes beyond the synthetic world. The ATARS Mission Suite allows for the planning, brief, execution, and debrief cycle to be done in the hangar and in the cockpit, and to run full multi-aircraft training scenarios. Crews can load mission templates, insert new synthetic entities, change entity behaviors and then load the training mission onto the system compute to fly at will.
When the mission is complete, audio and video recordings are automatically loaded into the Mission Suite computer and can be used to debrief every decision and every reaction over the course of the session.
Turning Science Fiction Into Reality
Our Gen 1 Helmet-Mounted Display (HMD) is a transformational leap in wearable augmented reality technology. Previously there has been no means by which virtual assets could be visually represented in the real world, outdoors, and at high speeds. Red 6’s ATARS HMD is the brightest headset available, allowing for outdoor use in full daylight and at the speed of a figher jet.
Industry-leading optical technology
The ATARS optics stack is designed from the ground up to maximize clarity, realism, and a fully immersive experience. The ATARS waveform is capable for displaying synthetic entities across a wide field of view as well as providing overlaid flight reference information for a heads-up pilot experience.
Fast, smart sensors for a seamless immersion
Low latency head tracking allows for smooth, natural behavior of synthetic entities and system responsiveness to quick pilot actions without lag or jitter. Eye tracking measures intent and focus for continued learning and smarter pilot inputs.
Unique data for brand new insights
The ATARS system, and the ATARS Mission Suite are designed around flexible, powerful data capture, ingest and analytics capabilities. The system captures previously unavailable video, audio & sensor information while airborne, analyzes that data with AI tools, and presents information to pilots and commanders to drive decisions on readiness improvements and airborne tactics.
