Tobyhanna’s Army Depot Maintenance of the Future plans to migrate immersive facility based on EON Reality technology to other maintenance organizations across DOE maintenance community.
IRVINE, Calif., February 4, 2010 – EON Reality, the world’s leading interactive 3D software provider, announces the installation of its virtual reality technology at Depot Maintenance of the Future, DMOF, 10,000 Sq defense facility in Pennsylvania.
DMOF is a working laboratory to evaluate new tools, equipment, and facilities and it is now fully rolled out within the department of defense. It features a flexible, agile work base that can reputably be reconfigured to accommodate new work load demands and respond to the needs of customers. Concepts and methods proved in DMOF will migrate to other Tobyhanna maintenance organizations and will be shared across the department of defense and maintenance community.
Technical assistance in the field has expanded rapidly this decade, and growth will continue with the evolution of a new organizational structure to manage and coordinate field sustainment and support. Tobyhanna is formulating an integrated approach to deliver worldwide, expeditionary field logistics support and services for the joint war fighter. This will be accomplished through a global network of permanent and deployed personnel located at forward locations. They will possess a reach-back and reach-across capability within Army Materiel Command to fully leverage technical and industrial capabilities for war fighters.
