Microsoft has partnered with Anduril Industries to develop advanced combat goggles for the U.S. Army, potentially worth up to $21.9 billion over the next decade. The goggles, known as the Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS), will feature capabilities such as night vision and real-time threat alerts using Anduril's Lattice software. Palmer Luckey, founder of Anduril and Oculus, emphasizes that this project is a top priority and critical for enhancing battlefield data accessibility for soldiers. The Army plans to order up to 121,000 units, pending successful operational testing next year, which aims to address previous concerns about discomfort from earlier versions. The collaboration aligns with the Pentagon’s strategy to integrate cutting-edge technology in military operations, with Microsoft already having a longstanding relationship with the military. Luckey's Anduril is also known for its development of autonomous systems and has recently raised significant funds to expand its capabilities.
