			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The DOD is working on some cool new technology to help with soldiers performing ISR or Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance. These activities require special equipment that can come as a bit of a hassle at times.</p>
<p>DARPA or the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is working on technology that can be applied to wearable lenses to fit in the eye much like a contact lens. The lenses would contain the technology to display a full color HUD that can then display full color digital images; the tech would be used to help heighten the situational awareness of the user.</p>
