New Orleans Hurricane Battle Zone for Virtual Reality Training
The City of New Orleans looks like a battlezone, we have bodies floating in the streets, snipers shooting at police and looters in gun stores. Although this Hurricane Katrina is a complete tragedy, you could have a better "Movie Set" for a great footage for Virtual Training Simulation. More and more our troops are being trained in virtual and augmented reality, currently night vision equipment and digital video is taken when raiding International Terrorist hideouts and weapons caches. These videos are brought back and used to help the special-forces train and practice. Well today we have a complete encapsulated war zone, which very much resembles a war-ravished city? In many Asian countries there is lots of water everywhere unlike the desert areas of Iraq and Afghanistan. We have plenty of footage for training now in that desert setting, but not as much in areas with water everywhere. We have snipers, criminals with guns shooting into refugee and evacuation points. We have armed people looting hospitals and medical offices for drugs? Taking everything. We have snakes in the flooded waters, one video on TV even showed a three-foot shark cruising down Canal Street in New Orleans. In Biloxi we have 18-wheelers filled with dead bodies being loaded and the area looks like a bomb went off or a war zone had been waged there for six months straight. Imagine the Hell on Earth we have for footage to show soldiers what war is really like, perfect for Virtual Reality training footage. We should take advantage of this and get complete footage now. It will also be good for training FEMA for work in our bordering countries and to help train international relief in case a Volcano or Earthquake hits Mexico City with 25 million residents or incase here at home California gets their big Earthquake? Our FEMA, National Guard and Soldiers can see first hand and be adequately trained to respond. For our military this is an opportunity to collect the footage needed to help them train for war, peace keeping or being part of a multi-agency team of first responders. Think on this.
