It has become clear in recent years that gaming as a whole has influenced the military. it would seem the army may have gone a bit too far this time as they have taken the everyday gaming controller and made it into something that can control war vehicles.

The question to ask is that are there any real benefits to using this kind of technology in the army? Well the first maker benefit would be that they no longer have to sit there on a mounted position controlling various things. Thngs like recon planes can now be controlled in very similar ways that you would control an RC plane. Does anyone remember that crazy film that starred Robin Williams as a toy maker who has to try and stop his uncle from taking over the world by using remote controlled tanks and planes.

it is possible that a time may come where the army will not have to send troops in at all and just allow them to sit back and control all of these tanks and things from behind the lines? Of course not, the whole reason the army is a success is because of the skills, wits and training that all of these men and women have been given. This is just another option to take when it comes to fighting a very modern war, it will never be used without the help of people and to think that it would is madness.

It is wondered how many deutsch connectors and cable ties are actually needed to develop this brilliant technology. The thing is, all of the creators of the game pads now have this on thier concious? Chances are they never invented the technology so the military could use it to fight wars, they are meant for fun and nothing else. Let us just hope that they used hellermann tyton to make sure everything is secure enough to work.
