Continuing the theme of that Star Trek discussion, I’ve heard of smart phone apps for calculating artillery trajectories (used in Ukraine) and calling in Airstrikes (used in Syria), but think of how it would look in a piece of fiction to have people use that. Would they be technically minded serious resourceful Heroes or garbage millennials who are too lazy to calculate their own artillery strikes?
Ah, but obviously they aren’t being serious, or they’d put it in augmented reality glasses as part of a total integration of tactical information in the battlespace. :)
Actually I do remember someone trying something like that.
Yeah, let’s pretend that never happened.
Only television writers would be dumb enough to think that your total immersion AR should involve shooting at your enemies by kickboxing them.
I’m thinkin’ about infantry though. Honestly, just looking like an FPS UI would be a step up. It shouldn’t be that hard.
