OK, maybe not everything you know is wrong. However, at a recent National Public Safety Telecommunications Council (NPSTC) Seminar, I was impressed with not just how little I knew, but also how much that I thought I knew was simply not true.
Test your level of misconceptions below:
1) Interoperability is not the ability to talk with everyone all of the time. Read more
You may not have had a chance to see AMREL’s new interoperability capability at AUVSI, but you can read about it on your free download. Just as our Flexpedient® technology revolutionized OCUs for UGVs, we think interoperable Small Lightweight Expansion Devices (SLED) will become standard for handheld applications. Click here.

AMREL will demonstrate a pioneering interoperability capability for an Android/ARM device at AUVSI 2013 this August in Washington, D.C.
“This is really unique,” said Ron McMahan, AMREL’s Vice-President of Engineering Solutions. “No other company produces handheld or control devices that have the ability to switch applications in the field as efficiently and easily. One platform, multiple applications; that’s the story.”
Yikes! The NDIA just announced that it canceled the Ground Robotics Capabilities Conference (GRCC) 2013.
In an email dated March 5, NDIA stated:
Discussions about combat networks usually concern issues of architecture, SWaP, capabilities, interoperability, and the Agile process. It’s easy to lose sight of impact of technological decisions on human beings. Recently I was reminded about the real-world effects of network solutions. The Business Insider excerpts a description from Garrett Anderson’s blog about his duties as a platoon radio operator in Fallujah. Explaining why he hates to talk on the telephone, he cites one incident:
