Harris Corporation to Provide Video Management and Distribution
System for the U.S. Army Combat Training Center CINCINNATI, Feb. 16
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Harris Corporation's (NYSE:HRS) Broadcast
Communications Division has announced that its integrated video
content management and distribution system has been selected by
Anteon International (NYSE:ANT) to be included in the U.S. Army's
Combat Training Center Objective Instrumentation Systems Program.
The project, led by Lockheed Martin Simulation, Training &
Support, will be deployed at the U.S. Army's National Training
Center at Fort Irwin, California. Harris will provide a system that
can digitally transport, ingest, store, add metadata, analyze and
archive large quantities of video produced during training
exercises. The video will come from more than 60 different sources,
including night-vision cameras, handheld camcorders and fixed
camera locations. The resulting training excerpts will be
transported to multiple locations and devices, ranging from large,
fixed-location theaters and mobile battleground theaters to
portable devices such as laptop computers in the field. Harris'
Invenio(TM) enterprise-wide collaborative content management suite
will provide metadata tagging, search and retrieval, and the
ability to add custom vocabulary to make the system friendly to end
users. In addition, the project will use Harris NetVX(TM)
high-speed connectivity for video networks and Harris DataPlus(TM)
WAN-based media management for real-time collection, scheduling and
transfer of digital assets. Harris will serve as a subcontractor to
Anteon, a leading information technology and engineering solutions
company, which will oversee and develop the After Action Review and
Video Monitoring, Recording and Editing Technology Capability
Groups in support of the National Training Center requirement. We
are very pleased to be working again with a long-time Harris
customer, the U.S. Army," said Jim Denny, vice president and
general manager of Harris Broadcast Communications Division's
