Army developing new STEM asset vehicle

Aug. 9, 2011 - PRLog -- The U.S. Army is creating a technology-enhanced mobile showcase that will be used to encourage students to enter STEM fields by placing them in an interactive, futuristic experience.

The vehicle will be officially unveiled at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl in January 2012.  

Upon entering, the vehicle will instantly transport students to the year 2032, a time rife with terrorist attacks and civil unrest. The students will join a team of U.S. Army Soldiers and civilian scientists and help design new technologies to protect lives and defeat the threat.
