1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,000 2 00:00:08,890 --> 00:00:10,779 A wearable cooling solution is in 3 00:00:10,779 --> 00:00:12,723 development to improve comfort and 4 00:00:12,723 --> 00:00:14,890 alleviate heat stress for war fighters 5 00:00:14,890 --> 00:00:17,000 who wear body armor . The aliment 6 00:00:17,010 --> 00:00:18,899 cooling system is the creation of 7 00:00:18,899 --> 00:00:20,954 Captain Justin o'brien who partnered 8 00:00:20,954 --> 00:00:23,010 with the Air Force Tesseract team to 9 00:00:23,010 --> 00:00:25,177 bring his idea to life . The Air Force 10 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,502 Tesseract initiative aims to accelerate 11 00:00:27,502 --> 00:00:29,669 combat focused logistics innovation by 12 00:00:29,669 --> 00:00:31,613 connecting ideas with resources to 13 00:00:31,613 --> 00:00:33,947 improve mission generation capabilities . 14 00:00:33,950 --> 00:00:36,061 The design uses a wearable bladder to 15 00:00:36,061 --> 00:00:38,172 circulate water through a cooling pad 16 00:00:38,172 --> 00:00:40,172 on the user's back , absorbing body 17 00:00:40,172 --> 00:00:42,228 heat and releasing it to the outside 18 00:00:42,228 --> 00:00:43,950 environment . O'brien says his 19 00:00:43,950 --> 00:00:46,117 experience as a security forces member 20 00:00:46,117 --> 00:00:47,783 is what drove the idea and he 21 00:00:47,783 --> 00:00:49,839 encourages others to draw from their 22 00:00:49,839 --> 00:00:52,061 own experiences to start the innovation 23 00:00:52,061 --> 00:00:54,860 process at their level . The latest 24 00:00:54,869 --> 00:00:56,758 iteration of the where airmen and 25 00:00:56,758 --> 00:00:58,869 guardians get information survey will 26 00:00:58,869 --> 00:01:00,813 soon be available for thousands of 27 00:01:00,813 --> 00:01:02,813 service members and civilians . The 28 00:01:02,813 --> 00:01:04,980 survey provides an opportunity to tell 29 00:01:04,980 --> 00:01:06,591 senior leaders what kinds of 30 00:01:06,591 --> 00:01:08,647 information are most relevant to the 31 00:01:08,647 --> 00:01:10,758 force . It also helps identify trends 32 00:01:10,758 --> 00:01:12,758 in external sources . Personnel are 33 00:01:12,758 --> 00:01:14,758 using to stay informed . The survey 34 00:01:14,758 --> 00:01:16,869 will be emailed to most guardians and 35 00:01:16,869 --> 00:01:19,036 approximately 12,000 randomly selected 36 00:01:19,036 --> 00:01:22,230 Air Force and civilian employees . The 37 00:01:22,239 --> 00:01:24,072 Air Force Research laboratory is 38 00:01:24,072 --> 00:01:25,961 testing a new command and control 39 00:01:25,961 --> 00:01:27,739 system called base oversight of 40 00:01:27,739 --> 00:01:29,850 autonomous response or bore project . 41 00:01:29,850 --> 00:01:31,906 Bore is designed to control multiple 42 00:01:31,906 --> 00:01:33,628 unmanned vehicles of all kinds 43 00:01:33,628 --> 00:01:36,309 including land , air sea and undersea 44 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,486 from a centralized command and control 45 00:01:38,486 --> 00:01:40,430 system . A recent test of the bore 46 00:01:40,430 --> 00:01:41,986 system allowed operators to 47 00:01:41,986 --> 00:01:44,208 simultaneously send tasks and view live 48 00:01:44,208 --> 00:01:46,129 feeds from static and drone video 49 00:01:46,139 --> 00:01:48,440 systems . Leaders on the board research 50 00:01:48,449 --> 00:01:50,319 team say the system will enable 51 00:01:50,330 --> 00:01:52,274 increased monitoring and oversight 52 00:01:52,274 --> 00:01:53,941 capabilities such as security 53 00:01:53,941 --> 00:01:56,163 reconnaissance and maintenance . That's 54 00:01:56,163 --> 00:01:58,219 your look around the air force . I'm 55 00:01:58,219 --> 00:01:59,160 staff Sergeant Khadija Slaughter .
