KNDS France & VRAI To Partner for Simulation & Human Performance Data

KNDS France and VRAI, a simulation data company, have announced a partnership at DSEI for simulation & human performance data.

KNDS France & VRAI will collaborate around VRAI’s HEAT simulation data solution, their ReACT Virtual Reality (VR) Armour Crew simulator and KNDS simulation products to offer insights to their customers into how to reduce the time and cost it takes to train armour crews while improving crew performance. The partnership will also focus on building large datasets to drive future AI support tools for armour crews.

The partnership with KNDS is a recognition of the innovative simulation solutions VRAI can offer to KNDS’s customers, such as their ReACT Armour Crew virtual reality (VR) training solution.

Commenting on the new partnership, KNDS vice president for BD Europe & NATO, Alexandre Penley said, “We are thrilled to unite the innovative simulation technologies developed by VRAI and KNDS France within a single ecosystem, enriching the possibilities for our customers. This strategic integration will open new horizons—enabling richer, smarter, and more adaptive analytical processing experiences. It’s a leap forward that redefines what the future of AI simulation can achieve.”

VRAI’s CEO Pat O’Connor added, “We are very excited to announce our partnership with KNDS France. This partnership is a great example of how an innovative dual use technology company like VRAI, can complement and grow in partnership with a larger OEM like KNDS France, to bring innovative solutions to our soldiers, sailors and aircrew, faster. We believe that the data generated in simulation can not only drive insight into performance, but is also critical to our customers ability to build AI enabled support tools for their end users.”
