SEEING INTO THE FUTURE

How the conflict in Ukraine is influencing development of vehicle-mounted and 
soldier-worn night vision systems and optical sensors.

REPORT SPONSOR:

Introduction

In this first of Shephard’s new Technology Reports, Andrew White looks at how optical sensor feeds can help build a complete situational awareness picture for combat vehicle crews facing peer adversaries, and how digital augmentation is vital in avoiding sensory overland and disseminating vital data across an entire force.

Turning to soldier systems, Andrew examines the need for Western armies to maintain night vision superiority over enemy forces with sophisticated capabilities of their own. From lighter devices providing better vision to sensory overlays, how can technology help dismounted squads stay one step ahead?
