Description
Ravn seeks to further development of the software layer powering its High-tech Assaulter’s Virtual Command and Control (HAVOC) Interface. The HAVOC Interface is a multi-modal display and compute platform that will leverage a Head-worn Display (HWD) and associated peripherals to provide a HUD capability to dismounted warfighters. The HWD will enable users to send, receive, view and manage digital information in a platform that accommodates the unique challenges associated with dismounted operations. This capability will greatly increase the user’s situational awareness, ability to interact with external assets, coordinate with disaggregated units and leverage new concepts such as Human-Machine Combat Teaming. For this Phase I effort, Ravn is proposing to conduct an in-depth customer discovery process with Air Force customers in an attempt to find Product-Market Fit. Ravn will identify the specific pain points of users and the value proposition offered by The HAVOC Interface. It will also identify key stakeholders to necessary to ensure a successful transition to a Program of Record.
