No one listens to me! I told you this was going to happen way back in 2018! https://techaptitude.substack.com/p/virtual-reality-is-destined-to-be
DoD has spent ~ $1.8B for ~ 10,000 Army AR combat goggles that will now sit in on the shelf.
The goggles produce headaches, nausea, and more than 80% of soldiers reported physical symptoms within three hours of wearing the device.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, soldiers wearing the devices had worse battlefield performance than the equipment it was meant to replace.
Microsoft x'ferrd this canard to Anduril in April 2025, and Anduril is attempting to re-engineer this mess. Good Luck with that Palmer! https://www.techtimes.com/articles/320165/20260711/army-ar-goggles-gao-confirms-18b-spent-headsets-too-sick-field.htm

We had a great time at our #datacollection on #StatsraadLehmkuhl last night. We sailed from #Bergen, past #Askoy and towards #Oygarden in great weather.
The bridge crew got to test the #HoloLens #AR application that Floris van den Oever has developed for his #PhD. The crew found the interface to be intuitive, and saw the potential in having information about other ships as overlays in their visual field. Looking forward to more field testing!
