The Army Training Command and Gandhinagar-based Rashtriya Raksha University (RRU) inked a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to establish a War-game Research and Development Centre in New Delhi.
The project, dubbed ‘WARDEC’ as a prototype, will be India’s first simulation-based training centre, which will use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to create virtual reality war-games.
Soldiers will put their talents to the test in the meta verse, which will combine virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) to imitate their surroundings.
The Army plans to use the gaming centre to teach military strategy to its officers.
The Army will give data to form the backdrop of the game, according to RRU officials, so that participants have a genuine experience.
The BSF, CRPF, CISF, ITBP, and SSB, in addition to the armed forces, might benefit from meta verse-enabled simulation exercises for enhanced training.
