Abstract: An augmented reality (AR) system and method that provides multimodal decision support for users engaged in safety critical missions. A system includes a wearable device having a first lens configured for a first eye of a user and a second lens configured for a second eye of the user; and a computing platform integrated into the wearable device that includes: a communication manager configured to receive and process communication feeds from a plurality of data sources; and a display manager configured to display image-based data on the first lens and text-based data on the second lens, wherein the image-based data includes a set of user-selectable views and the text-based data includes a set of user-selectable pages, and wherein only one of the image-based data or text-based data is displayable for the user at a time.

Abstract: A system and method that system for provide visual decision support information. A disclosed system performs a process that includes: storing a set of layers of GIS data associated with a safety critical use case; in response to an active incident, integrating UAS incident data with the GIS data and generating a visual decision support interface that includes a flight plan overlaid onto the GIS data, wherein the flight plan includes a path with interactive points that link images taken by a UAS to geospatial locations in the GIS data; in further response to the active incident, integrating at least one of: weather, thermal image, social media, RFID, machine learning, animation, graphic, haptic sensor, holographic or virtual image, emoji, or video data, with the GIS data to provide additional visual information to the visual decision support interface; and displaying the visual decision support interface on at least one display.
