Augmented Reality in the Military

I read an article in the Economist about how troops on the ground could have augmented reality goggles in the (not too distant) future.  The goggles would overlay information from satellite, plane and drone views so that troops would have a digital image of enemies over the hill or through buildings. The descriptions, at least in my mind, sounded almost too much like the little “blips” in Halo and other video games.
