Tanagram Inc designs and builds software and hardware technology that helps people connect and succeed in todayâs complex, data-rich world. The company creates prototype hardware using Arduino processing units and designs interfaces for extremely complex applications, always seeking to simplify user workload, solve complex problems, gather data, and enable the human-computer partnership. The firm is actively working on a solution for a heads-up display system that can provide real-time visual data representation to soldiers in the field, as well as facilitate data flow between combatants including manual visualizations, GPS, battle status, and floor plan data for buildings. This system is made of lightweight sensors and displays that collect and provide data from and to each individual soldier in the field. The setup includes a computer, a 360-degree camera, UV and infrared sensors, stereoscopic cameras and OLED translucent display goggles. With this technology - all housed within the helmet - soldiers will be able to communicate with a massive "home base" server that collects and renders 3D information onto the wearer's goggles in real time. The ability to virtually communicate the location of hostile forces to fellow soldiers is an invaluable technology to troops fighting in unfamiliar urban environments. Various objects and people can be "painted" using the company's technology, outlining them in a specific color to warn soldiers of things like friendly forces, potential danger spots, impending air-raid locations, rendezvous points and much more.
