Maybe soldier of tomorrow looks like "Star Wars" Stormtroopers because that hides the who is the robot (Picture 1) |

VR or virtual reality is an ultimate tool for fun and work. Virtual reality will make movies look like that the person is inside the happenings. And this is the reason, why VR is the very effective tool for many other things like pilot training. The ball-simulators what are used in training, have revolutionized the training of military and civil pilots. This equipment is an ultimate tool also for medical doctors, who might use virtual reality controlled robots as their "esoteric bodies". That would bring qualified medical services to areas, where have been dangerous to work before. That equipment can serve in South-Pole and spaceships, where they can work with the crew.
But Virtual reality can offer many more options, what the humans could ever imagine. If those ball-simulators would connect to drones, the pilot could make missions with remote-controlled aircraft. The same computer games, what are simulating tanks, submarines and aircraft can be transformed as the user interfaces for robots. The thing goes, that when the operator chooses some weapon from the screen, the system would automatically choose the right ammunition, put it in the tube and shoot it. That ammunition can be marked with RFID, and the system can use this equipment to choose right grenades or bullets. And this would make those things very frightening and same time fascinated thing.
The VR is basing the technology, where the small screen would be put on the person's eyes, and also headphones can be used for making those experiences real. And the virtual reality set could be connected to the robot, what operates in the remote area. The touch of those robots can transmitter to the operator by radio, and if this person uses gloves, what are equipped with small piezoelectric components, could that person feel same things, what he touches by using the remote robot.
Bur Google and many other corporations are creating the robots, what can be used by EEG. This equipment might be in the helmet, what this operator wears when the person controls the robots, what might look like humans. The helmet is chosen because that would put the electrodes in the right place. And the two-way data transmission would also stimulate brain core, what gives real "esoteric" experience for the user of those robots. Which means that this is the technical version of "OBE" (Out Of Body) experience.
This kind of device can revolutionize everything, what have seen or what we have believed. If this machine works somewhere, it can transmit same experience to the operator than this person would be in there. And that kind of robots might be very effective in space exploring missions. They could send to the moon and other planets without the need to risk the human life.
But the same robots can work as military officers. They could be remotely controlled from thousands of kilometers from the battlefield. Also, those robots can use in many high-risk military operations, and nobody ever can catch them. Robots can equip with internal explosives, what would destroy them, and the operators would be unable to track. And this makes them useful for violent criminal activities like robberies.
