[Music] very recently has become possible. So, this is a new product that we just announced at the Army's conference yesterday. We've been working on it for years using our own money. No taxpayer dollars were used to create it.
Um, it's called Eagle Eye and it is an integrated ballistic shell. So, you've got a helmet. Um, you've got hearing protection. You've got thermal sensors, night sensors, uh, uh, signals, intelligence sensors that allow you to detect where cell phones are, where radios are, see that in your view. It even detects where gunshots are, shows them exactly where they're placed and how far they are.
>> So, this is the this is a recreation of it. So, this is >> Yeah, this is a So, this is a video feed of what it is like to use the system. So, I've got the helmet on here and then what I have is this pair of augmented reality glasses. Um, so basically I can take these glasses and I put them on. These sync with the helmet and with these sensors so I can for example see where my gun is pointing. I can see where every enemy is. I can see where all of my buddies are. I can see.
So, like there's a there's a view that's coming up here where you're going to notice a drone picks up a guy behind that container over there. And what's going to happen is when he walks behind that container, I'm able to continue to see where he is and what he's doing. So, here's Ghost X is the drone that's watching. So, just watch for a moment. So, the blue force is my friendlies. So, see that little right hand corner where it sees behind the containers?
>> Uhhuh.
>> They're tracking where the bad guy is. They're tracking where my guys are. And then watch when they go behind the container.
>> So I can actually see through it and watch. Now they're engaging the guy over there and he's down.
>> Wow.
>> Imagine a guy's coming over a hill and I want to engage him. So actually I'm going to put on the mission shield. There we go.
So um this is a system that allows everybody to basically be operating as one one combined hive mind where you can all share a view of the world. And by the way, this view that I have, it's shared now with all of the robots as well. So all the anything I see, like let's say I see someone inside of a building, every drone and every person now sees that person where he is.
It's so crazy that I was born at the right time to actually get to build all this stuff because, you know, Robert Heinland, the science fiction author who did Starship Troopers,
>> okay?
>> Um
>> he was literally writing about these ideas of mobile infantry. wearing mech suits and ballistics prediction, like helmets that show you the bad guys, give you radar feeds, give you night vision, give you thermal vision, the ability to uh to do ballistics targeting where it calculates where the wind is going to blow you around and and where where it's going to go. He was literally writing about this in the 1940s. I mean, we're talking about almost a hundred years ago.
Wow. And we happen to be born in the right time. So, you know, uh, too too late to too late to explore the the seas, too early to explore the stars, but just in time to build eagle-eye.
>> Can I put that on?
>> Yes, absolutely. Here, if you want to take this, you can put it on. This is an actual weighted helmet. We've developed a bunch of novel technology. Make it work. You're Oh, yeah. It actually fits on you.
>> Oh, here your little wrap. Very, very similar what we do on the hearing enhancement side. It's just a world even beyond that. Is it too tight or you got it?
>> And then this snaps. Oh, yeah. How's the snap?
>> So, here, let I might have to come around. There's a little bit of a trick that you you learn it. What it does is it goes in and then you're going to push it up and back diagonally. Oh, you did it. There you go.
>> I figured it out.
>> I'm so glad. See, that's just how intuitive it is.
>> But, uh, it's And the cool thing about this is you don't have these like mounts now that are snagging you. Here. Well, you got to put on the glasses, too. Oh, yeah.
