Fraunhofer FKIE develops application-oriented technologies for C4ISR systems and develops models, methods and tools for network-centric warfare
Motivation: Mobile computers ≠ stationary computers Military application ≠ private application Research studies to assess fitness for use Design of a visualization and interaction
concept on a conceptual and technical basis Performing CD&E-studies by means of
A comprehensive UI concept for COTS based wearable computing systemsApproach: Combining several devices to foster positive
and mitigate negative impacts Development of distributed and consistent UI
across all devicesChallenges: Identify suitable selection of devices Identify support relations among these Determine which device is acutally in use and
which goal the user has in mind
Diversity of mobile devices allows task-tuned ICT support
