Anduril and Meta are collaborating to develop extended reality devices for the U.S. military, marking a significant partnership for Anduril co-founder Palmer Luckey. The collaboration leverages Meta's technology, including its AI model, and Anduril's command and control software, aiming to provide soldiers with real-time battlefield intelligence. This partnership follows Anduril's recent win of a military contract, previously managed by Microsoft. Luckey, who was fired from Facebook in 2017, founded Anduril shortly after. The new project, named EagleEye, represents a full-circle moment for Luckey, who expressed enthusiasm for the joint effort.
