1. General Military Technology
It is standard for aerial vehicles, ground vehicles, and naval vehicles to be partly to fully uncrewed vehicles.
Certain equipment/vehicles are equipped with a multispectral, adaptive optoelectronic camouflage system inspired by the cephalopod camouflage system.
Surveillance technology is equipped with hyperspectral imaging.
Protective armor is composed of composite borophane foam (similar to composite metal foam) as its primary material.
Anti-drone countermeasures consist of detection/tracking systems and interdiction:
• Detection and Tracking Systems include radar, radio frequency (RF), electro-optical (EO), infrared (IR), acoustic, and combined sensors.
• Interdiction includes jamming RF and GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System, which includes GPS and GLONASS), spoofing, lasers, physical nets to entangle the target, stringy streamers to entangle rotors, projectiles, electromagnetic pulse (EMP), water projectors, sacrificial collision drones, electronic warfare, high-powered microwave weapons, and kinetic energy interceptor missile-drones.
Anti-drone swarm countermeasures include advanced jammers, ground and airborne-based radars meant to deceive or destroy the drone swarm, counter-swarms, and other countermeasures used for non-swarm drones.

2. Uncrewed Ground Infantry Surrogate System
The Uncrewed Ground Infantry Surrogate System contains interfaces and algorithms to enable a soldier to partner with a semi-autonomous, bi-pedal machine effectively and allow it to act as the soldier’s surrogate.
The soldier operates the surrogate with their thoughts through a non-invasive, wearable brain-computer interface (BCI). The BCI then transfers the data to the surrogate to be translated into code.
The surrogate transfers a wide range of data to the soldier, such as audio feedback, visual feedback, haptic feedback (including pressure, texture, and temperature), hyperspectral imaging, chemical conditions of the environment, etc. via the BCI, advanced haptic bodysuit, and VR system.
• A very early version of the haptic bodysuit
The BCI system is also used to monitor the soldier’s psychological and health conditions.
Uncrewed Ground Infantry Surrogate (UGIS):
The UGIS standard height is 1.7 meters.
The UGIS body armor is composed of composite borophane foam (similar to composite metal foam) as its primary material.
Metal foam stops .50 caliber rounds as well as steel -- at less than half the weight

The UGIS is equipped with a multispectral, adaptive optoelectronic camouflage system inspired by the cephalopod camouflage system.
