It is a helmet with a built-in display system, specially designed to provide soldiers with visuals data in real time, referring to technologies previously seen in science fiction stories.
Even if the Appliances - displays that are worn on the head have not started to circulate widely yet, it is taken for granted that they will be a part of everyday life in the future, in all its manifestations. BAE Systems' Q-Warrior is further proof of this, as it is essentially a military 'Google Glass'.
In particular, it's a helmet with a built-in screen system, specially designed to provide real-time visuals to soldiers, referring to technologies previously seen in science fiction stories.
It looks like a pilot's helmet, but it's specifically designed for use by soldiers, providing services such as demonstrating hostile and non-hostile forces, or helping to coordinate and manage small units.
"The system significantly improves the environment perception capabilities of soldiers in action except οχημάτων» αναφέρεται στη σχετική ανακοίνωση της εταιρείας. Το σύστημα διαθέτει διάφανη έγχρωμη οθόνη υψηλής ανάλυσης, η οποία επιτρέπει την ομαλή «ενσωμάτωση» συμβόλων και βίντεο στο οπτικό πεδίο του χρήστη, χωρίς να προκαλεί προβλήματα όσον αφορά στην αντίληψη του πραγματικού χώρου. Στις δυνατότητες του Q-Warrior περιλαμβάνονται η προβολή πληροφοριών σε κείμενο, προειδοποιήσεις σχετικά με απειλές, νυχτερινή όραση, waypoints και πληροφορίες διαδρομής κ.α.
According to Paul Wright, a BAE Systems executive, initially the system is expected to "see" more demanding in areas where improved environmental perception provides a decisive advantage, such as air support co-ordinators or special anti-terrorist units. The next stage, according to Wright, will be in airborne units or mariners, where increased aggression and better technical equipment are required due to the necessarily lighter equipment their businesses (airfields / outposts) have.
