Alion Tackles 3D Modeling for First Responders

Alion Science and Technology Corp. is launching a push to expand its presence in the school security market by offering first responder organizations and school officials its Response Information Folder System (RFIS).

The company has been working for the past year with universities and high schools in Virginia, and plans to expand its offerings across the country as interest in simulation technology has spiked in the wake of the Virginia Tech shootings. The company’s RIFS technology enables law enforcement officers and other emergency responders to get a real-time video, data and 3D-model feed of local buildings as crises develop.

I got a look at the system during my interview with Alion’s Vice President of Homeland Security, Don Rondeau.
