Augmented Reality Will Supply Firefighters with More Power
Firefighters might one day be able to go further into hazardous situations and exit safely thanks to augmented reality glasses in development at BAE Systems.
The technology is aimed at closing a gap that exists between bulky and unadaptable systems used by the military and commercially available equivalents that tend to be large and fragile.
BAE Systems has unveiled wearable, AR concept that uses its patented waveguide technology to provide optical performance and efficiency in a miniaturised, ruggedised package.
According to theengineer.co.uk, the product will be worn like a pair of glasses and use free-space tracking technology to display guidance, targeting, and mission information to the user, along with sensor video.
Prior to that, BAE is engaging with customers to gain feedback that will inform the design and capabilities of the final product. It is scheduled for qualification and validation in 2019.
