UK MoD Presents its Future Soldier Vision
02.11.2015
Britain's MoD introduced its Future Soldier Vision (FSV), which is what the Ministry imagines a high-tech squaddie of the next decade might look like. Developed by the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl), the British Army, Kinneir Dufort, and SEA Ltd, the FSV is based on projections of today's commercial and military technology.
Future Soldier Systems Conference and Future Forces Exhibition will again bring together professionals in dismounted soldier systems in October 2016 in Prague. Do not miss the opportunity to meet in person the leading experts in DSS from all around the world!
The concept battle dress features sensor-laden body armour for better survivability and situational awareness, as well as a personal-role computer and information-sharing network capability. The most obvious advance of the FSV is the helmet, which serves as more of an information processing centre than a plastic brain bucket. Referred to as a "head sub-system," an integrated power supply runs a crown of lightweight sensors that not only feed data to the wearer, but to fellow squad members.
Over the ears are bone conducting headphones that improve communications and situational awareness without interfering with the wearer's hearing. What look like shooting glasses on the FSV are actually smart glasses with a built-in camera and a heads-up display to relay data. Continuing the wearable data concept is a smartwatch that monitors and records biometric data.
Completing the FSV is a concept weapon that is ergonomic, customizable, and can share targeting information with other soldiers and units.
"The Future Soldier Vision concept provides the MOD and industry with an aim point for what the soldier could look like a decade from now," said Ross Jones, Programme Manager for Close Combat Systems, Dstl. "It provides a platform to challenge what this future could be and how industry and academia could help the MOD to make it a reality."
You can expect future solutions like the UK’s FSV and much more at Future Forces Forum 2016.
