"This is the way we’ll train [pilots] in the future."Like something yanked straight out of a sci-fi movie, Air Force fighter pilots are going to start using augmented reality headsets for combat training.
"Better, faster, cheaper," Daniel Robinson, founder and CEO of Red 6, the AR manufacturer that nabbed a $70 million contract with the Air Force,According to the report, Air Force pilots will be able to train against virtualized versions of advanced jets like those manufactured in China and Russia within a year.
The movement of these AI-based ghosts can be overlaid over what the pilot sees through their headset in real-time, providing realistic training experience — without needing access to expensive, and hard-to-find fighter jets.
