In Iraq, some American soldiers use electronic portable instruments for battle, although it seems sometimes they don’t work correctly and those systems are difficult to manage when they are next to the firearms. Therefore, a new computerized glove has been presented as the alternative.
RallyPoint has just developed a glove with integrated sensor that allows the soldiers to see or browse digital maps, communicate with other people through radio, and send orders with their fingers on the trigger.
This development type is very important and practical for the American soldiers. The concept is not new, but the inexpensive and simple implementation of the glove is a novelty.
Maybe this is not a computer application to be proud of, but the military industry have the power to move a lot of money and its developments can be useful in the daily life.
