Project Background





Lockheed Martin has different Advanced Gunnery Training Systems (AGTS) which the military uses for training exercises. The goal of this project is to improve their tabletop module. Our Deployable Ground Vehicle Training Simulator looks to make the tabletop module from Lockheed Martin portable. The customer, Lockheed Martin, has two main problems with their current tabletop module. The problems are that it isn't stable enough when connected to some tables, like plastic folding tables and the user has to find their own chair. Our design has an adjustable simulator mount and chair that has enough stiffness and stability.

Our team obtained the product functions and requirements to design toward by talking to the customer. Consistent performance with each use was our main goal when we came up with different ideas for the design. After running the tests on CAD software, the final design is then tested to make sure all the functions are fulfilled. Our product aims to be portable, easy-to-use, and sturdy with the goal of making it more convenient for the user.
