		</div><p>Defence firm BAE Systems has announced a £20 million investment in a range of new technology solutions for naval ships, including the introduction of augmented reality (AR) glasses for officers.</p>
<p>Among the new solutions included in the British company’s plans are AR glasses for officers, enabling them to see tactical data and other operational information from anywhere on the ship.</p>
<p>It said it will also introduce artificial intelligence to combat systems as a tool to quickly process data and help reach crucial decisions faster as part of plans it says will herald the next generations of operations on surface ships.</p>

<p>Frank Cotton, head of technology for combat systems at BAE Systems, said: “These technologies have the potential to transform maritime warfare and greatly increase the situational awareness and efficiency of crews on board Royal Navy ships.</p>
<p>“Our combat systems expertise and investment in future technologies will ensure we continue to deliver innovative capabilities to navies.”</p>
<p>The firm said future operations rooms on ships could be based around head-up displays (HUDs) powered by augmented reality, with vital information overlaid as holograms in front of the user’s eyes, which BAE argues will give officers the chance to maintain a visual perspective on a situation without needing to refer to a console or another member of the crew.</p>
