Elbit Systems of American will produce the Integrated Headborne Sensor System (IHSS) prototype for dismounted Soldiers in the US Army.

The company announced receiving an Other Transaction Authority contract from SOSSEC.Inc. hrough the Sensors, Communication, and Electronics Consortium (SCEC).

Elbit America’s IHSS is a wearable system, which allows soldiers to remain mobile while they acquire, share, and utilize critical information on the battlefield. The system fuses a myriad of sensors into a lightweight head-up display that provides unprecedented situational awareness. Elbit America’s prototype evolves through three prototype development phases over 72 months.
Elbit America will iteratively develop and mature a headborne display with superb imaging and augmented reality technology over the next six years under this contract. During the process, the company works directly with Soldiers to gather feedback through multiple touchpoints. These touchpoints are critical to the development and allow the product to advance rapidly while incorporating soldier feedback.

The IHSS is another solution Elbit America is evolving to enable the soldiers of the future. The company is currently developing several sophisticated decision aids, display systems, and more to assist dismounted Soldiers in urban, underground, and other contested environments.
