Six15 Technologies is the world leader in researching, developing and manufacturing wearable optical displays. Six15 Technologies develops both off-the-shelf and custom smart glass solutions for Fortune 500 companies and government and defense agencies. Wearable optics power decision making, enhance problem solving, and accelerate critical action. They’re ideal for industries such as the military, logistics, medicine, and public safety.
Military forces provide their troops with an immense amount of digital data. Yet it can be difficult to synthesize and act on military intelligence swiftly and accurately, especially in extreme environments where conditions on the ground are constantly changing. Six15 wearable optical displays empower fighting forces by giving individuals the information they need – when and how they need it. Data and expert commentary is delivered directly to troops’ smart glass devices, enabling them to keep their line of sight and hands free to perform critical duties as they participate in mission-critical operations. Meanwhile, military commanders can use operators’ line of sight and feedback to continually update and enhance their decision making, increasing force effectiveness while minimizing troop and civilian injuries and casualties. Six15 head mounted displays also be used for sensitive military initiatives, such as security, surveillance, and covert operations. They provide a ubiquitous computing environment to enhance the success of high-dollar, risky operations, as well as the physical security of key operators.
