Training

A mobile telemedicine solution providing high quality video, audio and patient physiologic data in real-time from mobile remote ambulances, deployable systems, and portable kits to hospital physicians to enable earlier physician intervention, resulting in increased survivability and reduced morbidity.

An exercise management system used to help train both civilian and military emergency response personnel in large-scale incident management and planning. Over 25,000 U.S. and international emergency responders have been trained in exercises ranging from the incident command post up to the state operations level.

A simulation-based, virtual training system to support TEEX’s Industrial Incident Management and Incident Command training program. This system immerses trainees into highly realistic situations, provides opportunities to exercise management and response doctrine within situation-specific emergencies, and enables for a richer and more effective training experience for participants.

Supported edge and corner detection and analysis algorithms and visual modeling and rendering for a real-time 3D trajectory tracking and guidance system utilizing novel event-based image sensing for vehicle docking.

Designed, developed, deployed, and supported a fleet of five digital ambulances for the Fletcher Allen Level 1 trauma center in Burlington, Vermont. Also fielded a standalone deployable wireless on-scene camera as well as portable “Grab & Go” cases to be used with ambulances outfitted with minimal pre-install equipment.

Designed, developed, and deployed a mobile Laboratory Animal Reporting Application (LARA) system for the restrictive Biosafety Level 3 biocontainment facilities within the Plum Island Animal Disease Center to increase efficiency of data management and improve data reliability and availability.

A laboratory platform for exploring innovations in mobile healthcare and those enabling technologies that are critical to advancement in this important area of research. The vehicle provides a fully reconfigurable hardware and software environment for hosting multiple research projects simultaneously that are centered on broader challenges in mobile healthcare.

Evaluated, selected, installed, integrated and sustained a video conferencing system infrastructure within five state, university, and federal research, diagnostic, and biocontainment veterinary laboratories across the U.S., enabling live sharing of microscope imagery, animal necropsies, laboratory test results, instrumentation, and field clinical signs between researchers and technicians across geographic and biocontainment barriers.

Support the Texas Teleforensic Remote Assistance Center (Tex-TRAC) telehealth program that provides a statewide sexual assault nurse examiner (SANE) to serve rural and underserved communities in Texas. The interactive cart and iPad systems allows for identification of injuries and ensuring documentation is as comprehensive as possible, all while ensuring without sacrificing patient privacy, confidentiality, and expert care delivery.

Designed and developed a wildlife disease model for Classical Swine Fever (CSF) within feral swine to address limitations of current models, support assessment of the wildlife risk, inform strategies to prevent wildlife interaction, and simulate disease spread, potential time to detection, possible control and mitigation strategies, and the respective economic costs.
