ANDURIL Industries ha presentado su nueva versión de casco, que constituye la más moderna solución para el planeamiento y ejecución de misiones de combate, integrando Inteligencia Artificial (AI), C&C y capacidad de supervivencia en un solo dispositivo portátil: El casco individual. El sistema denominado EagleEye, permite a las tropas planificar y ejecutar movimientos tácticos con absoluta coordinación y conciencia situacional, identificación y geolocalización de propias tropas y elementos enemigos, pudiendo además asumir el control de diversas plataformas autónomas desde el casco. De diseño liviano, aporta capacidades de visión nocturna, así como una mayor protección en la cabeza contra el efecto de esquirlas y la onda expansiva de explosiones cercanas. En el programa de desarrollo de EagleEye, han participado diferentes empresas tecnológicas como Meta, OSI, Qualcomm y Gentex Corp, principalmente en todos los aspectos relacionados con IA y realidad aumentada.
Anduril Industries has unveiled its latest mission planning solution that puts AI, command and control, and survivability into one wearable package.
The system, named EagleEye, enables troops to orchestrate tactical movements and assume control of unmanned platforms directly from their helmets.
It is reportedly lightweight by design and helps reduce the mental workload of soldiers while providing enhanced battlefield protection at the same time.
By pairing mission software with a heads-up display (HUD) that needs no helmet modifications, EagleEye essentially turns US Army troops into “on-the-go command and control hubs.”
“We don’t want to give service members a new tool — we’re giving them a new teammate,” stated Anduril Founder Palmer Luckey. “The idea of an AI partner embedded in your display has been imagined for decades. EagleEye is the first time it’s real.”
More Than a Helmet
EagleEye’s mission planning features center on a high-resolution 3D sand table that lets troops coordinate with other units and rehearse formations while overlaying live video feeds so everyone sees the same picture.
The helmet’s HUD also offers optically transparent daytime and night-vision modes that adapt to different environments without blocking natural sight.
Anduril’s blue-force tracking allows teammates to appear inside buildings rather than as dots on a flat map. With Lattice AI and spatial audio, the system can also reveal threats even when line of sight is blocked.
The helmet doubles as protective gear, with a full-cut design meant to deflect debris like shrapnels and absorb blast shockwaves for improved protection compared with traditional helmets.
The company developed the EagleEye from the ground up with help from tech firms like Meta, OSI, Qualcomm Technologies, and Gentex Corporation for the augmented reality features.
This collaboration helped Anduril lower development costs and shorten the timeline, all while keeping the design modular for future upgrades.
