Military Russian Federation is developing a "smart" Shole with AI: What is known about the prototype "Harmony" (photo)

To spread: Russian engineers have created a prototype of a combat helmet with elements of artificial intelligence, which is able to analyze the situation on the battlefield and provide the fighter operational data on the location of the allies and the enemy. The novelty was shown within the framework of the People's Front Project, reports TASS.

The developers claim that the built -in AI module receives data from the camera installed on the helmet of the fighter, as well as information from other servicemen and drones. After processing the data, the algorithm forms a real -time card, determining the location of the parties and broadcasting the UAV video flow on a special screen built into the helmet.

All this data could then be transmitted to commanders, providing a more complete situational awareness, transmitted from the advanced in real time. "We have introduced a module from AI in technology can say ammunition of the future. This product, complex, called" associate ". The module from the AI ​​receives data from the camera of the fighter on a helmet, from other servicemen with a similar technique The enemy will pass the video from the drone.

According to Forbes Views, Russia is not the only country working on the integration of the AI ​​in combat equipment. At the beginning of this year, Meta (Facebook) and Anduril Industries began the development of Eagle Eye helmet. It will be equipped with augmented reality and is capable of providing a fighter about the battlefield in real time through the Lattice system - a network of control and control based on artificial intelligence.

Experts believe that Soratnik and Eagle Eye helmets can be a revolutionary step in the development of combat equipment, which has not changed significantly over the last centuries. Experts say that modern technologies seek to change what has remained virtually unchanged since the First World War.

The study of the University of Duke (USA), published in the journal of PLOS One 2020, showed that the old models of combat helmets, such as the French helmet of Adrian (1915) and the German helmet Stahlhelm (1916), provided even better protection against shock waves than modern analogues. This is due to the fact that the helmets of the First World War were developed to protect soldiers from artillery explosions, not from bullets and fragments as modern ballistic helmets.

In this case, the problem of weight and comfort remains unchanged - too heavy or uncomfortable helmet of a soldier will simply not wear. It should be noted that in March 2025, The Economist media spoke about the opportunities of the Russian Federation to receive equipment for war. According to NATO Commander-in-Chief, General Chris Cavoli, Russians can put 1,500 tanks on the front for a year, and all US plants-only 135.
