Remember what we discussed here about augmented reality a couple of days ago? Well we have come across a very practical implication of the technology. Where else can such a technology be invaluable than in the military. Imagine military head wear that has built in projections in front of the eyes of the soldier. When the soldier looks at a building these projections can point out where friendly or enemy forces are located by highlighting the windows in different colours! Also maps of and area or blueprints of buildings can be seen right in the goggles of the soldier! How effective this technology can be, and how efficient it will make war by reducing civilian casualties can only be seen after this technology is implemented. As far is Pakistanis are concerned, no matter how badly we don't want drone strikes on out soil, what is even more important to us is the cessation of civilian casualties that take place with them. What we can say for sure is that this technology is VERY promising !
