Rise of the
iSoldier: British military kitted out with high-tech vests, augmented reality
helmets and wearable chargers
The Broadsword
range includes a wearable power pack called the Spine
It
uses e-textiles woven from conductive yarns to wirelessly charge
devices
BAE's inductive seat
charger transfers energy from a vehicle to the vest
And all of this
energy use can be monitored using a smartphone app
Other equipment in
the range includes Q-Warrior augmented reality visor
영국군이 i솔저로 거듭난다.
이들은 조만간 첨단 배터리 조끼,증강현실(AR)헬멧,무선충전용 전자섬유 군복으로 무장하게 된다.
그 중심에는 스파인(Spine,척추)으로
불리는 유도충전방식의 웨어러블 전지팩조끼가 자리잡고 있다.
이 조끼를 입고 차량의 유도식 좌석 충전기에 앉는 것만으로도 조끼의 배터리를 충전할 수 있다.
스파인은 도전성 실로 짜여진 전자섬유(e-textiles)군복이어서 무전기 등 각종 군용 단말기를 무선으로
충전해 주며, 데이터 송수신용 핫스팟 역할까지 한다.
스파인에 전원을 넣으면 스마트무기는 물론 라디오,카메라,스마트헬멧,스마트횃불 등의 기기와 데이터를
주고받게 할 수 있다. 이 조끼는 런던의 방산업체와 서리 소재 인텔리전트텍스타일디자인사가 함께 만들었다.

British troops could soon head into battle kitted out in the latest state-of-the-art wearable technology.
BAE Systems has created its Broadsword range of devices that revolve around a vest called Spine.
Spine uses so-called e-textiles to wirelessly charge military equipment - and this energy use can be monitored using a smartphone app.

Other equipment in the range includes the Q-Warrior augmented reality headset and car seats that wirelessly charge the wearable technology.
Spine was developed by the London-based defence firm with Surrey-based Intelligent Textiles Design.
It can power up and transfer data to and from equipment such as radios, cameras, smart helmets and torches, as well as smart weapons - effectively working as a portable hotspot.

Eight devices can be plugged in and charged at any one time, and the vest's electrically conductive yarns can also be used to charge other gadgets wirelessly. This image is a grab from the Spine's connected app. It shows how much power the vest, and individual gadgets, have

Elsewhere, the Q-Warrior see-through augmented reality display integrates with the Spine and smartphone to overlay useful information such as GPS locations, temperatures and other data.
BAE has additionally created an inductive seat charger that automatically transfers energy from a vehicle to the vest.
This means the Spine never runs out of energy and can be charged as soldiers travel around battle zones.
And all this power usage can be managed using a smartphone app.

BAE and Intelligent Textiles Design said that although the technology is designed for the armed forces - and conforms to the standards set by the Ministry of Defence - it could also be used by fire and rescue services and the police.
The inductive charging equipment pouches (pictured) provide power to equipment batteries from the Spine. The power is inductively transferred into the equipment through a modified attachment
'Current integration of body worn equipment has not been addressed as a platform design and has resulted in an unwieldy cable harness,' said BAE.
'The weight of current equipment carried by the soldier is far in excess of what is considered fit for purpose.
Broadsword is a product family of interconnecting components for the next generation of soldier systems.
'[It] delivers ground breaking technology to the 21st century warfighter.'
