Israeli army using wrist video screens to monitor drone planes

Israeli army wrist video

Tadiran Spectralink LTD, a military contractor, has developed wrist video systems for use by Israeli armed forces. The screens display data from unmanned drone planes, allowing forces to see over hills or into areas they wouldn't normally have access to. The wearable screens supply a distinct strategic advantage to those wearing them, and a clear disadvantage to those being watched. Also in development by Spectralink is a videogame-looking control console for unmanned tanks and other armed vehicles. Sam Fisher and Solid Snake would be so proud.
