Jeremy Herring and Kelly Ervin from the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) talk about the organization's augmented reality and virtual reality capabilities during a March 9, 2023 episode of the Power of ERDC podcast. Herring is a research mechanical engineer at ERDC's Information Technology Laboratory, and Ervin is a research computer scientist at ERDC's Information Technology Laboratory. ERDC established the Dynamic Immersive Virtual Environment laboratory in December 2019 to study how to best apply augmented and virtual reality to help the Department of Defense, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and other federal agencies. Herring and Ervin talk about how ERDC’s augmented and virtual reality effort got started (17:48), the transformative benefits offered by these technologies (7:51), and how they can change the way we communicate (15:36). They also discuss ERDC’s unique capabilities (28:05) and past efforts in this space (19:18), how this research can help the military (33:12) and what lies ahead on the cutting edge (38:55). The Power of ERDC podcast is a behind-the-scenes look at ERDC’s involvement in solving some of the nation’s toughest engineering challenges.
