Patent number: 10467549Abstract: Various embodiments associated with an interface that displays a visualization are described. In a combat or other environment, a great deal of information can be made available. In addition, this information can be compared against a metric of performance. This metric of performance could be qualitative or quantitative. In a complex environment, a relatively large amount of information can be gathered and it can be beneficial to produce an interface that enables a user to quickly understand the information with specific emphasis on how an entity related to the information is performing against the metric. The interface can include various features, such as time controls that allows for playback of previous information, measures of performance, and a structured tree view that illustrates hierarchical relationships of elements.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2016Date of Patent: November 5, 2019Assignee: The Government of the United States, as represented by the Secretary of the ArmyInventors: Richard Cozby, Dennis Bushmitch, Michael Badger
