DARPA wants AR goggles to help soldiers with complex tasks
a new system to help military personnel perform complex tasks. Perceptually-enabled Task Guidance technology uses sensors to see and hear what the user sees and hears, guiding them through AI-produced instructions displayed in augmented reality .
PTG combines sensors with AI and AR headsets to integrate into the user’s environment. The idea is to help soldiers and other military personnel enhance their skills, complete complicated tasks and perform them better. DARPA has narrowed its focus to three areas: battlefield medicine , sustainment and co-piloting .
However, DARPA’s training demos use something more pedestrian: cooking. Dr. Bruce Draper, the program’s manager, describes it as the ideal proxy task. “[Cooking is] a good example of a complex physical task that can be done in many ways. There are lots of different objects, solids, liquids, things change state, so it’s visually quite complex. There is specialized terminology, there are specialized devices, and there’s a lot of different ways it can be accomplished.
