"Anduril, the military tech company founded by Oculus creator Palmer Luckey, has announced the first hardware to come out of its recent partnership with Meta: EagleEye, an AI-powered mixed-reality (MR) system designed to be built into soldiers' helmets. The modular hardware is a "family of systems," according to Anduril's announcement, including a heads-up display, spatial audio, and radio frequency detection. It can display mission briefings and orders, overlay maps and other information during combat, and control drones and military robotics."
""We don't want to give service members a new tool-we're giving them a new teammate," says Luckey. "The idea of an AI partner embedded in your display has been imagined for decades. EagleEye is the first time it's real." Anduril, which also manufactures border control tech, lethal drones, and military aircraft, has been developing EagleEye since its inception, and already provides software for the Army's existing MR goggles, based on Microsoft's HoloLens hardware."

The EagleEye program stems from a partnership with Meta announced in May. Palmer Luckey described EagleEye as an AI teammate and said the collaboration advances his goal to turn warfighters into technomancers.
