Retrospect ICE Breaking 2018
ICE Breaking – the IT-Circle event about innovations within the affiliated organizations – was a great success. Over 500 participants from 50 organisations visited the 18 different break-out sessions with a wide range of subjects and live demonstrations.
Host of this day was the Ministry of Defence, where Olivier Sessink – Head of Innovation & Research – took care of introduction and the keynote. Take a look at his presentation in which he explains why innovation can sometimes be vital for Defence tasks. He also explained how they organized IT-innovation, the challenges and the results achieved. Next to that the other very interesting presentations can be reviewed further down this page.
During the various breaks contacts were established, strengthened and expanded. And exactly that is the aim of the IT-Circles: sharing, learning from each other, developing yourself – and with that the organization – further.

At the information booth, the IVO Jurisprudence innovation team told more about Augmented Reality:
Seeing is believing
The team innovation of IVO jurisprudence has investigated what augmented reality (AR) can mean for justice by purchasing a Microsoft Hololens. This first, fully self-contained, holographic computer glasses has a great overview possibility, allowing simple visual information and holograms to be visually displayed in the user's awareness field. The research contributes to to the question whether AR or VR can be used in law cases.
Augmented reality technology, and specifically the Microsoft Hololens, is currently in the early adopters phase of the innovation adoption curve. This means that the general public is not yet familiar with this technology and this product. For this group of people "seeing is believing." With this in mind, the IVO jurisprudence innovation team has built a prototype of a fictual fight in which several statements of suspects and witnesses are virtualized.
