1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,000 2 00:00:06,710 --> 00:00:08,766 it means change and hopefully change 3 00:00:08,766 --> 00:00:10,877 for the better the right person hears 4 00:00:10,877 --> 00:00:12,988 it and says , oh wait , I know how to 5 00:00:12,988 --> 00:00:15,043 make that possible . People can meet 6 00:00:15,043 --> 00:00:17,560 and collaborate and you know , start 7 00:00:17,570 --> 00:00:19,570 have an idea come from inception to 8 00:00:19,570 --> 00:00:20,570 reality 9 00:00:26,240 --> 00:00:28,240 throughout the Air Force , a lot of 10 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,880 people use be AR and VR simulation to 11 00:00:30,890 --> 00:00:33,650 better training . Uh , we try to meet 12 00:00:33,650 --> 00:00:35,817 that level here at Edwards and we just 13 00:00:35,817 --> 00:00:37,983 got a new upgrade system for the paris 14 00:00:37,983 --> 00:00:40,420 um , allows our parachutists , whether 15 00:00:40,420 --> 00:00:42,910 it's an emergency aspect bailout 16 00:00:42,910 --> 00:00:44,966 ejection , we now have a system that 17 00:00:44,966 --> 00:00:47,299 can simulate all the different aircraft , 18 00:00:47,299 --> 00:00:49,354 all the equipment they're gonna have 19 00:00:49,354 --> 00:00:48,910 and that way they get the best training 20 00:00:48,910 --> 00:00:51,570 here . This innovations and spark tank , 21 00:00:51,580 --> 00:00:53,580 they're able to find these funds to 22 00:00:53,580 --> 00:00:55,524 help these projects to really just 23 00:00:55,524 --> 00:00:58,730 better our program . It is an excellent 24 00:00:59,860 --> 00:01:01,780 simulation of how the canopy is 25 00:01:01,790 --> 00:01:04,068 actually manipulated in the real world . 26 00:01:04,270 --> 00:01:08,060 Very , very good for training our 27 00:01:08,060 --> 00:01:10,171 test parachutist program and actually 28 00:01:10,171 --> 00:01:12,393 getting the free fall simulator to make 29 00:01:12,393 --> 00:01:14,560 sure that all the equipment that we're 30 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:14,540 gonna be testing and jumping or even 31 00:01:14,540 --> 00:01:16,818 just currency training for individuals . 32 00:01:16,818 --> 00:01:18,818 We're putting in the most realistic 33 00:01:18,818 --> 00:01:20,929 scenario before we actually kick them 34 00:01:20,929 --> 00:01:20,870 out of an aircraft and they have to 35 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:22,991 deal with those problems in the air . 36 00:01:22,991 --> 00:01:25,324 Now , with all the new upgrades that uh , 37 00:01:25,324 --> 00:01:27,436 that parasite is offered , we can now 38 00:01:27,436 --> 00:01:29,658 take this system and adjust it from the 39 00:01:29,658 --> 00:01:29,580 smallest person that's going to be 40 00:01:29,590 --> 00:01:31,805 flying , whether it's a pilot project 41 00:01:31,805 --> 00:01:33,805 or a bailout or someone that's even 42 00:01:33,805 --> 00:01:35,916 just doing an orientation flight to a 43 00:01:35,916 --> 00:01:37,972 linebacker , someone that's that's , 44 00:01:37,972 --> 00:01:40,027 you know , 64 £300 . We can now fit 45 00:01:40,027 --> 00:01:42,027 them in all the different equipment 46 00:01:42,027 --> 00:01:44,194 that we , that we have available to us 47 00:01:44,194 --> 00:01:46,305 Now . This is innovation . This was a 48 00:01:46,305 --> 00:01:48,361 successful idea worth getting behind 49 00:01:48,361 --> 00:01:50,472 now . It's your turn . Does your unit 50 00:01:50,472 --> 00:01:52,416 or squadron have a great idea that 51 00:01:52,416 --> 00:01:54,527 sparks change for the better ? Well , 52 00:01:54,527 --> 00:01:56,885 you can , with the Fy 23 Airmen pitch 53 00:01:56,885 --> 00:01:59,330 process , You can pitch your idea in 54 00:01:59,340 --> 00:02:01,720 five easy steps . Check below for all 55 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,887 the information you need . We want you 56 00:02:03,887 --> 00:02:06,030 to succeed . You can also pitch your 57 00:02:06,030 --> 00:02:08,280 idea on the 4 12 testing innovation app 58 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,169 as well . And don't forget keep a 59 00:02:10,169 --> 00:02:12,336 lookout and watch the best of the best 60 00:02:12,336 --> 00:02:14,940 ideas compete for funding and resources 61 00:02:14,950 --> 00:02:18,570 at spark tank 2023 coming this spring .
