Breakthrough: Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR/VR) Applications and Startups in Government

We are in the midst of a transformation in the way we interact with computing machines. Augmented and virtual reality technologies are starting to enable heads-up engagement with data in three dimensions, with government agencies in many ways leading this change. Whether reviewing the designs complex equipment for defense programs, practicing coordination of jumps from planes, or therapeutics to help veterans recover from injury, or field support engineers getting remote support while repairing a complex piece of equipment, AR and VR technologies are being used to create immersive and real-life experiences that often mirror reality. Delivering these technologies are a myriad of up and coming startups as well established technology giants.

Join AWS and Public Spend Forum as we bring together government leaders, technology startups and emerging technology firms, and experts to discuss how AR/VR technologies can transform governments approach training and development. This session is part of our Breakthrough Series, where we are focused on helping government find technology for pressing challenges and helping companies break through the government bureaucracy to more easily work with government.

The session will include a panel as well as short demonstrations by innovators at the forefront of the immersive transformation.

Please note this event is for defense professionals interested in learning more about AR/VR applications for mission-critical training as well as MRO/operational training use-cases. Startups in this industry are also encouraged to attend.
