For all the bad things about the MIC, at least it pushes technology forward
The virtual reality headsets the trainees wear will run from a backpack unit similar to a top of the range gaming laptop, called the ‘Man Wearable Unit’. “While the man wearable units aren’t running on an off-the-shelf Alienware, the internal components themselves are commercial off-the-shelf CPU’s and GPU’s like NVIDIA graphic cards and whatnot,” says West.
Roy Campbell: If you ask me, these so-called Next-Generation Special Forces should to be called "simulated soldiers". They have no real battle experience.

Eh, the MIC is feeding off progress elsewhere
a friend of mine programs games for the military and they use custom gun controllers made in-house. he just recently got back from some thing out in the middle east he had to go to for a while that dealt with his job.
