US Army's individual equipment upgrade - Wekeway - keeping up with the forefront technology of the times
58彩票Recently, the army department, which focuses on soldier equipment, has become known for its new full surround goggles and small arms work, replacing decades old light machine guns and carbines.
However, there are many other projects already prepared or planned to be released by the Executive Office for Soldiers, including the Army's green service uniform, advanced night vision goggles, electric weapon rails, and methods for almost wirelessly connecting all components of soldiers.
General Anthony Potts, responsible for PEO soldiers, gave a speech to the Army Times before this year's US Army Association meeting, introducing the responsibilities of his organization.
One of the most influential events in the office this year was the establishment of a soldier integration facility at PEO Soldier Headquarters in Fort Belvoir, Virginia. SIF is a place where Army equipment experts can test equipment in various situations to obtain feedback from soldiers during the design process.
Potts said, "SIF is fully functional, and we have practiced it multiple times now
In August, the Army Times peeped into the facility and simulated the shooting range using the functionality of the prototype "all-in-one" goggles (known as the integrated visual enhancement system).

SIF is also key to how PEO soldiers develop an adaptive squad architecture, which is the foundation for all new devices and technologies that soldiers will use when serving IVAS and next-generation squad weapons. This architecture also helps to reduce battery power, as well as a large amount of signals and communications that flow through soldiers' equipment and are then shared with higher headquarters.
However, compared to the Army's plan to integrate an App Store for this device, the hardware that gives it potential for development is simple. Potts said that the application of this software solution can help improve target acquisition or provide biofeedback to soldiers during training or combat, greatly enhancing the integration of technology and soldiers.

Alternatively, he added, developers hope to combine multiple functions into one device to increase lethality while reducing load.
Potts pointed out, "We are in the initial stage." "I think the growth potential is enormous
