Showcasing the exploitation of technologies for the SAF Transformation
3G SAF TechX is held in conjunction with the Defence Technology Prize (DTP) Award Ceremony 2004 at Suntec Singapore International Convention & Exhibition Centre, Ballroom 2 and 3, Level 2. The exhibition is opened to public on the following days:-
10 Nov 2004 - 1230 to 1800 Hours
11 Nov 2004 - 1000 to 1800 Hours
The 3G SAF TechX aims to demonstrate the whole array of technological capabilities as a system of systems, where visitors are given a chance to experience how the 3rd Generation (3G) SAF could operate in the future. More than 50 projects from 13 organisations are showcased in the exhibition.
The Command Post of the Future (CPoF), which aims to demonstrate how a networked and autonomous reporting units work together to generate a rich source of battlefield information, will be showcased at the Exhibition. This would be by the SAF Centre of Military Experimentation (SCME).
Besides SAF, the other organizations participating in the 3G SAF TechX include:-
- Defence Science & Technology Agency
- DSO National Laboratories
- Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR)
- Temasek Laboratories @ Nanyang Technological University
- Temasek Laboratories @ National University of Singapore
