Urban Warriors
CLOAKED in darkness, the eight enemy targets inside the pitch-black room can easily go undetected, but are instantly revealed with night-vision goggles.
Outside, a head-mounted display allows a section commander to see beyond his field of vision by using a weapon interactor to scan the area he needs to view.
These urban-warfare scenarios are not scenes from the latest action movies - they are from the Defence TechX exhibition, organised by the Ministry of Defence and Defence Science and Technology Agency (DSTA).
Visitors can witness how a soldier is transformed into a real-life Robocop with the Advanced Combat Man System (ACMS) (right). The ACMS - comprising a personal radio, communication keypad, portable computer, headmounted display and weapon interactor - heightens situational awareness, battlefield-monitoring capabilities and survivability. It is being developed by DSTA to become "lighter and more rugged".
