Anduril unveils EagleEye super soldier helmets for Army SBMC program

Anduril plans to deliver about 100 AI-powered EagleEye helmets and eyewear to the U.S. Army by mid-2026 to enhance soldier situational awareness and survivability.

  • On Monday, Anduril unveiled EagleEye at the Association of the US Army annual conference, a modular, AI-powered helmet family led by Palmer Luckey, Anduril's founder.
  • After years of problems with Microsoft's Integrated Visual Augmentation System , including soldier complaints of cyber sickness, the U.S. Army broadened suppliers and tapped Anduril Industries and Rivet.
  • EagleEye includes helmet, visor and glasses variants, offering high-resolution 3D mission planning, daytime and digital night-vision HUDs, rear and flank sensors, and sensor fusion via Lattice.
  • Anduril said it received a $159 million prototyping contract and plans to deliver roughly 100 units to select U.S. Army personnel, with Palmer Luckey securing one of two development contracts.
  • Earlier this year, Anduril announced a partnership with Meta and commercial leaders like Gentex Corporation and Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. to integrate AR, sensing, and helmet tech into defense.
