Information Dominance, Situational Awareness: The U.s. Army's Requirements And Methods For Procuring Displays

摘要

The focus for warfare in the 21st century is to be "Information Dominant" in any scenario, from counter-insurgency to full-scale world war. Information has become as critical as trained soldiers, tanks, artillery, aircraft, warships, and ammunition. Soldiers need smaller displays for individual Situational Awareness who is on the right, who is on the left, who is backing them, and where is the enemy? Larger units need information interactively now to continue to stay at least one step ahead of the enemy. Situational Awareness will mean synthesizing an expanding body of knowledge to be able to "see first, act first, and defeat the enemy decisively." Without properly performing displays, none of this would be possible. As the military continues to adapt and transition to a 21st-century fighting force, the opportunities for display manufacturers to get their products into military applications will only continue to grow, but knowing how to get your foot in the door will help give you a leg up on the competition.
