Forterra Systems Selected to Participate in U.S. Army Small Business Innovation Research Commercialization Pilot Program

SAN MATEO, Calif. (Business Wire EON) April 28, 2008 -- TATRC identifies enabling technologies, matures them into components, integrates those components into simulation-based training systems, and validates them to determine the degree to which they transfer skills learned via simulation to the practice of actual patient care. Forterra's OLIVE(TM) (On-Line Interactive Virtual Environment) software platform forms the basis of a distributed virtual environment for training medical first responders, with the potential for rapid transition to operational Army units and commercialization leading to civilian applications of the technology by the larger medical community.

"We are honored to be selected as a 2008 project for the Army CPP," said Dr. Mike Macedonia, Vice President and General Manager of Forterra Federal Systems. "Our work on TATRC's SBIR phase II project validated the use of OLIVE and virtual worlds in a First Responder Team Training Application for local and hospital staff. Our selection for Army CPP has the potential to quickly move into Phase III and the acquisition process to meet high priority Army requirements for combat medic training. OLIVE has now reached this level of Army acceptance as a valid training platform."

Forterra's OLIVE platform provides an integrated medical training solution to support the unique and growing requirements of the medical community. With Forterra's OLIVE platform, realistic virtual emergency departments, operating rooms, reception areas, and even entire health-care facilities have been built to support a wide range of training applications, including first responder and trauma training. In the U.S. military, the contemporary operating environment requires combat medics to use their skills in team-based medical combat scenarios for effectively treating trauma patients on the battlefield.

"I am pleased with the track record of the companies in our portfolio who are developing research prototypes for potential transition into the military. Forterra Systems was among 25 firms selected and the only TATRC Phase II SBIR firm from 416 submissions that were considered for the Army CPP," said Harvey Magee, Technical Director, Medical and Simulation and Training Technology, at TATRC. "We are looking at leveraging the work that has been performed by Forterra to construct realistic military scenarios to improve medical training."

The program will build upon the Phase II work to provide a robust distributed training platform for medical skills particularly those required in team and Joint Force settings based on multi-users of OLIVE. Among the key program efforts:

New instructor tools to create lessons supported by the virtual

world which will lessen the load on the instructor as an

operator and allow the instructor to effectively educate and

mentor the students and more easily monitor and replay learning

sessions.

Exercise Control Tools will be designed, such that instructors

can create a more focused and specific trauma scenario to

include field and tactical behaviors and the care of patients

through the continuum of care.

Non-player character (NPC) avatars will be developed whose

behaviors are determined by the physiology model plug-in to

OLIVE, reducing the need for role-players and presenting

standard patient cases for treatment in the virtual world.
