In an era where technology is advancing at an unprecedented rate, the military is certainly no exception
0:07
From drones to exosuits, militaries around the world are harnessing the latest technologies to gain a strategic advantage on the battlefield
0:14
Imagine a world where soldiers can communicate with each other in real time through augmented reality displays
0:20
or where they can fire weapons with pinpoint accuracy from miles away
0:25
That world is already here, and it's nothing short of breathtaking. The technologies being used by the military today are a testament to the unlimited potential of human ingenuity
0:36
Welcome to Best Cool Tech. Buckle up, because today we'll transport you to the cutting edge of military technology
0:43
where the boundaries of what once was considered science fiction are being shattered every day
0:49
An interesting thought before we even start this whole thing, there are so many technologies that are kept under wraps
0:56
Close-knit ideas, top-secret files, confidential information, and ideas that are too revolutionary
1:02
to let others know just yet are always being developed and hidden behind the scenes
1:08
So we might think this is the future right now, but there's a very real chance it's
1:13
only the tip of the iceberg. And without further ado, let's get right into the list of the next level of war technology
1:22
At number 10, it's the wanted bullets. bullets. Remember when Angelina Jolie could just bend bullets in mid-air
1:29
Well, turns out we might be a lot closer to seeing that in real life than you thought
1:35
Introducing Orbital ATK's self-steering bullets. Packed with tiny sensors, these bullets aren't everybody's off-the-block bullets
1:43
They can change direction in mid-air. You heard that right. In mid-air
1:49
The idea is to be able to shoot moving targets from close to 50 feet away
1:53
The bullets should be guided all the way to their intended target, even if your aim might
1:58
not be the best. At number 9, it's ChatGPT but for autonomous weapon systems
2:05
With the integration of AI into the defense sector, militaries use computer vision to
2:10
improve the management of equipment safety and this enables autonomous weapon systems to decrease the number of casualties among soldiers By utilizing digital twins and machine learning defense manufacturers can test new military
2:24
products and perform predictive maintenance on military assets. A solid example is Axon Vision's AI-based decision-making engine, which can observe
2:34
and scan for potential threats around a vehicle in real time and alert soldiers on board the
2:39
vehicle of potential incoming threats instantly. It's an excellent piece of technology for covert operations focused on navigating threats
2:48
and obstacles that smaller groups could face in the field. Coming in at number 8, it's Epirus Advanced Directed Energy Weapon
2:57
Epirus has come up with a very sophisticated weapons defense system that can disable and
3:02
destroy electrical components remotely using microwaves. This technology allows militaries to disable drones
3:10
And unless you'd like to be disabled before this drone gets to you, a sub to this channel
3:14
would be lovely. I'm going to be watching while you go through the rest of the list
3:19
At number 7, it's Anduril's Autonomous UAS for Intelligent Air Support. What the hell is UAS, Cooltech
3:27
Well, we're glad you asked. UAS means Unmanned Aerial System, but that barely explains what Anduril came up with
3:35
The startup created a product called Ghost, and let me tell you a little bit about Ghost
3:40
It is a cutting-edge drone system that packs a punch with its advanced-edge AI algorithms
3:46
Lightweight, waterproof, and with a massive payload capacity, Ghost can tackle any mission
3:51
in any environment with ease. Offering real-time surveillance, intelligence, and reconnaissance, this drone provides a
3:58
crystal-clear view to make well-informed military decisions. imagine the entire military hooked onto a single drone that can feed them so much data in real time
4:09
That is certainly extremely impressive, and the ability to coordinate or give orders based on
4:14
shared vision becomes all the more useful. At number six, we're talking about the Internet
4:20
of Things. Shut up, Matt. What the hell is the Internet of Things? Well, think of it as a cloud
4:26
sharing sort of service that connects your ships planes tanks soldiers entire buildings and much more to one central cohesive network And like this cloud sharing you too should share this video if you liked it
4:41
One of the most popular companies working on this is Geosight, a US-based startup
4:47
Geosight collects information from various sources for both human and machine examination
4:52
Its collaborative military system employs satellites, IoT devices, and field sensors to create a unified view of the situation
5:00
The combination of data visualization and management dashboards provides a strategic advantage by allowing for effective planning and execution of operations
5:10
This system provides military forces with complete intelligence for monitoring the situation, detecting potential threats, identifying areas of operation, and mapping target locations
5:21
Whoa, sounds a lot like the technologies mentioned already. Shh, we don't talk about that here
5:26
Number 5. We have Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality Combat Training Okay, you knew this was coming, come on. Of course you knew. Comment below if you're one
5:38
of the guilty ones that thought the technology we placed at number 5 would be top 3 or something
5:42
But yes, that's virtual reality training. Red6 and GovRed are just two of the many other
5:49
companies that have started investing in creating virtual reality or augmented reality-based
5:54
training solutions. GovRed focuses on firearms training and combat simulators for soldiers
6:00
while GovRed focuses more on training fighter pilots. Okay, but I was thinking of something
6:06
even cooler. Well, how about laser cannons? At number four, we've got laser cannons that
6:13
Boeing is making with the US military. These laser cannons come with a very cool name
6:18
HellMD, because that's certainly where this laser will send its enemies, straight down to hell. One of the craziest benefits of using lasers instead of projectiles
6:28
is that the laser only requires to be powered up with a diesel generator. The lasers also consume
6:34
less energy than any other devices, efficient and destructive. Now we're getting into the top three
6:41
and if you've stuck around, should we be a little worried? No, I'm joking. We're all into the most
6:47
advanced military equipment. For research purposes of course Coming in at number three it every nerd dream ever but turned into some sort of military weapon It Camarotech Xaver 1000 and guess what it does Well um
7:04
it lets you see through entire walls. Yes, x-ray vision, but on steroids. The craziest thing about
7:11
this particular technology developed by Israeli military companies is that it can help identify
7:17
hidden objects, weapons, and people through a whole wall. It can also accurately even tell
7:23
whether the person in the room is sitting, lying down, or standing to an alarming degree
7:29
The company says it's an essential piece of technology for militaries, law enforcement agencies, and intelligence units. Not you, Steve
7:38
Okay, okay, back to seriousness. At number two, though, it's a literal eyeball. Okay
7:43
maybe not a literal one, but certainly one that's very close. The Israeli company Optronics Limited
7:50
has created a very inexpensive camera by the name of the eyeball. So what's the eyeball even made
7:56
for? Think hostage situation at the bank or sudden change in terrain where you're not sure whether
8:03
there are any fighters hiding in the dark. The eyeball weighs less than a pound and can just be
8:08
tossed directly into the danger zone where it bounces off objects until it comes to rest
8:13
The crazy thing about this ball is that it can give you a 360 degree vision of what it
8:19
sees around itself along with audio recordings of its immediate surroundings. And finally, drum roll please, the moment you've all been waiting for, the Skylark ILE
8:32
This little guy packs a punch in the UAV world. Small, lightweight, basically invisible in the sky
8:39
It's so easy to transport, even one person can do it. And in just eight minutes, you're ready for takeoff
8:46
With the ability to fly for a whopping three hours, live streaming video day or night
8:52
and navigate any weather condition like a boss, this UAV is the silent and stealthy spy of the
8:58
skies. It's quick to unfold and just as fast to return to its compact form
9:03
A real hawk with a moose's quietness. And we're done. Which of the 10 military
9:09
technologies were you most fascinated by
