The next generation army.




Inspired by cinema.


Imagine a soldier who goes beyond physical strength equipped with Artificial Intelligence that allows him to make quick decisions, move efficiently and anticipate every movement of his opponents, that Next Generation soldier is closer to reality than you imagine.


Inspired by fictions like Iron Man and Star Troops, the United States Army is developing an advanced system to transform the way combatants operate on the battlefield. For decades, the United States Department of Defense has invested in ambitious projects to Equip your special forces with high-tech suits offering superior protection and strategic advantages.

Previous projects.


In 2013, the TALOS project emerged, an attempt to create an armored suit that could withstand small arms fire and reduce soldiers' fatigue in combat. However, integrating all these systems into a single functional armor turned out to be more complicated than expected. and TALOS was completed in 2019 but the end of TALOS did not mean the end of the search for more prepared and protected soldiers.


Lessons learned paved the way for the Hyperactive Operator (HEO), a revolutionary concept focused on real-time data processing and situational intelligence on the battlefield. Unlike the rugged suits of the past, the HEO prioritizes Mind over muscle leverages intelligence to give soldiers a cognitive advantage, enabling faster, smarter decisions.

Possible scenarios.


Visualize the scene, an operator scans a potentially hostile area, with the help of it you can differentiate everyday activities from real threats in seconds, it is strategic analysis in real time, thanks to the data that AI provides, it is like video games like Call of Duty where players receive information about the position of enemies.


In the real world the HEO system promises a similar effect, but in real combat the HEO uses the concept of OODA Loop observe, guide, decide and act and with AI improving each stage of the process soldiers can anticipate enemy actions and respond. quickly and always stay one step ahead on the battlefield.


To make this vision a reality, SOCOM US Special Operations Command is investing in cutting-edge technologies including edge computing, advanced sensors, real-time language translation and beyond-line-of-sight communication that is used in situations where connections satellites fail.


The system allows soldiers to maintain stable communications Even in chaotic scenarios, Edge computing, on the other hand, are portable systems that process data locally, allowing instant analysis even in remote locations, without depending on external networks, advanced sensors are devices that capture from environmental conditions to biometric data, such as heart rate and facial recognition.


These sensors provide crucial data for AI by offering a complete view of the environment, real-time language translation is a tool called vira, which instantly translates foreign languages ​​even visual cues such as graffiti helping soldiers adapt to different cultures.


The potential of the HEO to transform the future of military operations is undeniable, with it the soldier of the future will not only be physically stronger, but will also have an AI-powered mind.
