2nd Lt. Jacob Sparkman is fitted with the Augmented Immersive Team Trainer prior to a briefing about the new technology for Gen. Robert Neller, commandant of the Marine Corps, aboard Marine Corps Base Quantico on Nov. 5. The AITT, developed by the Office of Naval Research, allows Marines to transform any location into a dynamic training ground by injecting virtual images, indirect fire effects, aircraft, vehicles, simulated people, etc. onto a real-world view of one's surroundings. - 2nd Lt.

Lance Cpl. Cody Barss explains how he landed a helicopter utilizing an Autonomous Aerial Cargo/Utility System prototype to Rear Adm. Matt Klunder, chief of naval research, left, and Col. Andrew MacMannis, deputy director for the Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory, during a demonstration at Marine Corps Base Quantico on Feb. 27, 2014. According to the Office of Naval Research, the system is designed to enable autonomous approaches and landings at unprepared landing sites, minimally supervised by field operators with no special training, for manned or unmanned rotary-wing aircraft - Lance Cpl.
