BANC3, Inc. is a rapidly growing defense product development and technology firm that provides best value services to the US Department of Defense and a broad range of enterprise customers. Our team has provided product development and IT infrastructure services, including augmented reality/ mixed reality/ artificial intelligence specialization, to our clients across the globe that include our product development; warfighter mission software simulation products, system design and infrastructure projects at Army facilities; network designs/ installation support; cyber security/ information assurance; training and logistics; and operations support services. This substantial experience provides BANC3 with world-class program plans and technical processes that accelerate and enhance our capabilities and reduce risk.

We have a 38,000 sq. ft. Top Secret facility in Princeton, N.J., near New Jersey’s High Tech Corridor. At this location, we have sophisticated laboratories where we conduct rapid prototyping to production projects in embedded systems, to include systems engineering, systems integration, software development and customization, and data analysis efforts. The lab also tests and evaluates COTS tools, conducts trade–off analyses, and ensures performance conformance with program requirements.

BANC3 also has a state–of–the–art computer integration lab that was built from the ground up to aid in the development of advanced sensitive component integration, rapid prototyping, software development, high-resolution optical technologies, and modeling and simulation (M&S) execution. The process of building the lab included all aspects of facilities management, physical security, information assurance, networking, bare metal infrastructure, virtualization, disaster recovery, software services, and M&S technologies support. The lab computing infrastructure is built upon the Dell VRTX converged platform which maximizes flexibility in an incredibly dense footprint. VMWare vSphere virtualization is deployed on top of the converged platform for virtually limitless flexibility and configurability. All on–site storage is backed up nightly to off–site cloud storage for historical data protection and recovery. Additionally, the integration lab is equipped with ESD–sensitive furniture for handling sensitive components, 3D scanning and printing capabilities for rapid prototyping, and an interactive projector for enhanced collaboration.

BANC3 also has advanced optical testing labs for confirming the quality and specifications of optical components used in AR smart glasses and headsets. The lab is equipped with a spectroradiometer, photometer, microscopes, ultra– high resolution cameras, and calibrated sources. Our facilities meet environmental laws and regulations of federal, state, and local governments for, but not limited to airborne emissions, waterborne effluents, external radiation levels, outdoor noise, solid and bulk waste disposal practices, and handling and storage of toxic and hazardous materials.

The computer/ network lab is capable of setting up a variety of experiments for evaluating, prototyping, and developing AR and other highly complex technology and tools. This in-house capability of taking a concept through design and prototyping to a fully functional embedded system in a rapid timeframe, utilizing an agile development approach based on CMMI processes, is a unique differentiator that we offer our clients.
