RallyPoint Handwear Computer Input Device

A startup called RallyPoint has developed a sensor-embedded glove that allows soldiers to view and navigate digital maps, activate radio communications, and send commands without having to take his hand off his weapon. The company calls this input device Handwear Computer Input Device (HCID).
