The US Army will spend 22 billion dollars on AR headsets

Microsoft was awarded the contract for the supply of high-tech products.

Currently, the US military is in talks about a fully integrated IVAS visual system that promises to be an absolute sensation. Microsoft has been awarded a 10-year contract to develop the technology. The deal will be worth an incredible 22 billion dollars.

IVAS is a system that is suitable for training and full combat. It will integrate data from various sensors into a solo display, which will provide fighters with an undeniable advantage during operations.

The system will look as lightweight augmented reality glasses equipped with an LCD screen, stereo cameras, and a night vision device. They will be connected directly to a helmet. The system control unit will be positioned on a soldier's chest. Its design is going to be as simple as possible, so you don't need to look at it when you set it up as it is an intuitive system.
