What sensors would this vest use to figure out where you are and where the obstacles and threats around you are?
- ncmncm 5y agoIt could get regular situation updates from base, and rely on GPS and compass to relate local position and orientation to interesting points. Just knowing at all times, without need to look at anything, the directions to mission objective and back to base would be useful.

You could have it from differential GPS but I can’t imagine a way how to do mount a long fixed baseline comfortably on a vest.
