A headset computer promises to give police officers and other emergency services Robocop-like abilities.
The Golden-i device, similar to the Glass project being developed by Google, offers the ability to see through walls thanks to infrared technology.
It is operated by voice commands and head movements and allows the wearer to access vital information without using their hands.
Golden-i has been developed by U.S. company Kopin Corporation, but software solutions tailored to police, firefighters and paramedics have been created by Nottinghamshire-based firm Ikanos Consulting.
It was shown off at the CES 2013 show in Las Vegas last month, although the firm says it is ‘too early’ to give a price.
