Anduril is teaming up with Microsoft to improve the Army’s HoloLens-based headsets with real-time threat updates.

These headsets will warn soldiers of autonomously-detected airborne threats, enhancing survivability in complex, contested environments.

Palmer Luckey, the Hawaiian-shirt wearing founder who sold Oculus VR for $2 billion before co-founding the military tech company Anduril, is back in the headset business -- in a sense. According to Wired,

Luckey's Anduril Industries has landed a lucrative new contract with the DoD that will bring automated headsets to America's warrior class.

When Palmer Luckey was hacking together virtual reality headsets at his startup Oculus VR in the mid-2010s, he would sometimes imagine a future in which US soldiers used the technology to sharpen their battlefield senses.
