Army's new night vision goggles look like tech used in Halo video games

The US Army has high-powered night vision goggles that provide war fighters with the ability to pick out enemies in the dead of night, regardless of weather conditions. The military group's Lancer Brigade shared footage of the new Enhanced Night Vision Goggle-Binoculars in action, which shows glowing figures that some liken to those in the popular'Halo' video game. The system includes a new, high-resolution display and an embedded soldier wireless personal area network, rapid target acquisition and augmented reality algorithms to interface with the Army's Nett Warrior. Using the goggles, soldiers can keep their eyes on their target without looking down to read maps or check radios, as all information is shown on the display. More than 4,800 of the combat-ready devices are now in the hands of the US Army.
