Published 3 years ago
The US Army released another video highlighting the visual feed as seen through their new Enhanced Night Vision Goggle-Binoculars (ENVG-B), this time focusing on an artillery team loading and firing their howitzer. The optics use augmented reality to visually identify targets and terrain features in low light situations.The video is wrapped in a juicy 1980's sci-fi themed audio track.
The night vision devices were developed by L3Harris to deliver imagery and data from the battlefield directly to the soldier’s eye. The system includes a new, high-resolution display and an embedded soldier wireless personal area network, rapid target acquisition and augmented reality algorithms to interface with the Army’s Nett Warrior. The complete system will interface with the Army’s family of weapon sights, while enhancing interoperability and data sharing.
