Palmer Luckey says he wants to 'turn warfighters into technomancers' as Anduril takes over production of the US Army's IVAS AR headset from Microsoft

Microsoft has announced that it is getting out of the Kill-O-Vision headset business, more formally known as the US Army's Integrated Visual Augmentation System (IVAS) program. While the company's "advanced cloud infrastructure and AI capabilities will continue to provide a robust backbone for the program," responsibility for actually making the headsets and the software that runs them is being taken over by Anduril Industries, the defense contractor co-founded in 2017 by Oculus VR founder Palmer Luckey.
