Troops could 'control guns with their minds', scientists suggest - Telegraph

Situational awareness improved and mind controlling guns. What will we become the terminator. The cost to a broke UK PLC and doesnt stop IED's.

What you say old beans, load of bollocks or garlic bread of combat future....

I say, might lift the standards of the officers, doncha know.

Wouldn't want to be a bad orifice when the defense would be stronger than the prosecution for such an offence...

This is all going to go horribly wrong once they kit out a pioneer with it.

The legal implications of such technology would be a nightmare ... Try proving what you might be thinking in a court of law!

It uses devices called BMI's - does that mean that RLC's get bigger guns than anyone else?

Cpl Parker, get Pte Cuntybollocks off my fucking range and make sure his boots remain blurred until he's hammering the guardroom tiles with them! He'll be charged for "negligent thought discharge."

I remember seeing the 'field interactive battle helmet' with head-up display, built-in GPS, laser-targeted wpn sight, integrated comms etc. It insisted that you were facing 180 degrees away from the direction you were facing, weighed about 10kg and was the size of a beachball. All that was missing was a flashing neon sign saying 'target'.
