The Army's Communications-Electronics Research, Development and Engineering Center (CERDEC) and Army Research Lab demonstrated a prototype — an "augmented reality" heads-up display that could help soldiers tap into sensors and other data.
Called Tactical Augmented Reality (TAR), the technology is the latest evolution of the Army's effort to network soldiers together and give them "situational awareness" on the battlefield—where they are, where their friends are, where the adversary is, and everything else they need to know for their mission, tied into tactical communications, the technology straight out of first-person shooter games. Over the past few years, CERDEC, ARL, and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency have been working on the core technologies to make augmented reality work on the battlefield, including the development of a platform called the Heads Up Navigation, Tracking and Reporting (HUNTR) system.
CERDEC's Night Vision and Electronic Sensors Directorate, U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), U.S. Army Research Laboratory, and U.S. Army Natick Soldier Research Development and Engineering Center together developed and demonstrated it.
Tactical Augmented Reality provides sensor imagery with integrated mapping, navigation and 3D surface models for greatly enhanced operational maneuver and fires. This capability increases the Soldier's ability to maneuver the battlefield and enhances survivability in dangerous operations.
