Oshkosh Defense Demo
Oshkosh Defense, LLC will be displaying their Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV) in addition to a digital twin on the show floor. The JLTV fills a critical capability gap for the U.S. Army and Marine Corps by replacing a large portion of the legacy uparmored HMMWV fleet with a modern light tactical vehicle. The JLTV provides MRAP-level protection while delivering best-in-class off-road mobility in a highly transportable package. This exhibition will demonstrate how to best manage and utilize IoT, AR and PLM data to create BOMS, remote access and monitoring of real time data, reduce engineering analysis gaps, and more. Specially, how Augmented Reality enabled condition based maintenance improves safety, lowers maintenance costs and increases the effectiveness of the JLTV and the warfighter in the field.

General Atomics Aeronautical Systems Demo
General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) will be featuring their SkyGuardian remotely piloted aircraft (RPA). During LiveWorx, PTC and GA-ASI will collaborate on scenarios that showcase the possibilities of the next generation of technologies, such as Augmented Reality and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIOT), for the flight line of the future. In the future these technologies may be used by engineers and technicians to keep aircraft flying at even greater levels of readiness.
