Oceus is excited and humbled to be selected to support the DoD in experimentation and testing of 5G for the Warfighter. We look forward to providing this capability to the men and woman who deserve to have the very best technology available.
As part of the Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality Training project at Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) in Washington, Oceus will develop and field a Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) based 5G handheld called Tough Mobile Device-5G (TMD-5G) for the field training environment. The objective of this project is to rapidly field a scalable, resilient, and secure 5G network to provide a test bed for experimentation with a 5G-enabled Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality (AR/VR) capability for mission planning, distributed training, and operational use.
This is part of a DoD effort for 5G experimentation and testing at five U.S. military test sites totaling $600 million in awards. Representing the largest full-scale 5G tests for dual-use applications in the world, each installation will partner military Services, industry leaders, and academic experts to advance the Department’s 5G capabilities.
