Abstract

Regional conflicts are joined by international terrorism as dominant factors in security planning and defence spending is being adjusted to focus on more flexible, responsive and mobile force structures with an increasing focus on logistics and lifecycle support. Moreover, new type of battlefields (urban areas, smart cities, …) brings new challenges to the infantry for improved situational awareness, lethality and survivability. My talk will review the current and future technologies for foot soldiers for better communications, enhanced lethality, mobility, survivability, and sustainability. It will provide an analysis of semiconductor related equipment for infantrymen: their applications, players, and markets, including infrared and radiofrequency, as well as sensors, batteries, exoskeletons, and future technologies. A specific focus will be done on infra-red imagers and sensors. Technological trends and market forecasts will be described.
