QuickTurn Spatial Maintenance Platform
Problem Statement:
The Navy is currently unable to quantify the scope and cost of serious endemic issues such as corrosion across the fleet. Maintenance data is unstructured and stored in multiple siloed, text-based databases that are subject to input errors.
Technology Solution Statement:
The QuickTurn spatial computing platform enhances naval aircraft maintenance within FRCs by creating digital twins of aircraft to improve efficiency, safety, and productivity. The platform will integrate mixed reality, AI, and ML to streamline maintenance workflows, connect directly with maintenance databases, and enable precise discrepancy reporting, such as corrosion quantification. By providing a robust framework for digital and physical model alignment, QuickTurn seeks to enhance naval aviation maintenance processes and support data-driven decision-making.
Benefits Statement:
The QuickTurn digital twin environment is a new and improved maintenance ecosystem which transitions naval aviation maintenance from legacy, subjective, and paper-based workflows to a digital, objective, data-driven foundation, where aircraft maintenance data is highly structured and stored on a spatially-mapped three-dimensional digital twin of each aircraft.
