Overview
- Meta and Anduril announced on May 29 that they will jointly develop EagleEye, a mixed reality system for U.S. Army soldiers.
- EagleEye will integrate hardware from Meta’s Reality Labs with Anduril’s Lattice command software and Meta’s Llama AI model to deliver real-time battlefield intelligence.
- The partners have submitted a joint bid on an Army contract valued at up to $100 million and will continue collaboration regardless of the award outcome.
- Anduril seized management of the Army’s Integrated Visual Augmentation System program from Microsoft in February to advance its soldier headset work.
- The deal marks a reconciliation between Palmer Luckey and Meta, more than seven years after his 2017 exit from Oculus VR.
