RIVET to demonstrate its next-generation heads-up display (HUD) integrated into the WILCOX FUSION CLAW™ ecosystem at Booth #3607

NEWINGTON, NH, October 8th, 2025 – WILCOX INDUSTRIES, a global leader in mission-critical integrated headborne and combat systems, is proud to announce its partnership with RIVET INDUSTRIES, a defense technology innovator, at the upcoming AUSA Annual Meeting & Exposition in Washington, DC, taking place October 13–15, 2025. RIVET will be exhibiting its advanced HUD technology at WILCOX’s Booth, showcasing how its integrated solution supports the U.S. Army’s evolving Soldier as a System vision.

Designed for the Soldier Borne Mission Command (SBMC) program, RIVET’s rugged, glasses-based HUD fuses data from Soldiers, sensors, and mission systems into a single operational picture, enhancing situational awareness and decision-making in any environment, day or night.

Through integration with WILCOX’s MANTIS™ mounting solution, the RIVET HUD becomes part of the FUSION CLAW-compatible system, seamlessly connecting individual warfighters to squad and command networks. This integrated approach supports maneuvering, targeting, and real-time data sharing, aligning with the Army’s focus on digital transformation and network-centric warfare, while managing the available power worn by the Soldier.

“This partnership embodies the next generation of battlefield technology,” said Jim Teetzel, CEO of WILCOX. “By integrating RIVET’s HUD with our FUSION CLAW™ platform, we’re delivering scalable, interoperable solutions that directly support the Soldier as a System vision and empower the modern warfighter.”

“The Army’s SBMC program is about creating a connected, informed, adaptable, and most importantly, more lethal Soldier,” said Dave Marra, CEO of RIVET. “By partnering with WILCOX, we’re accelerating that vision, bridging sensors, power, and data into a single, Soldier-ready capability.”

Attendees at AUSA 2025 will have the opportunity to engage directly with both WILCOX and RIVET teams and experience an interactive feature demonstration of the FUSION CLAW with RIVET’s HUD system.

GeoCue Introduces Immersive Image Explorer in LP360 for Next-Generation Data Fusion and Visualization

Tuesday, October 7th, 2025

Step Inside Your Projects with Imagery Fused Seamlessly onto LiDAR Point Clouds

For Immediate Release – October 8, 2025

Huntsville, AL – GeoCue, a global leader in LiDAR hardware and software solutions, proudly announces the release of theImmersive Image Explorer in LP360, a powerful new tool, available in plans for LP360 Drone or Land Standard, that transforms how users interact with their geospatial data.

The Immersive Image Explorer fuses captured imagery with LiDAR point clouds, enabling professionals to virtually “walk through” their scanned environments inside LP360. Whether collected from aerial, mobile, or handheld TrueView systems, imagery can now be overlaid directly behind point clouds for a richer, more intuitive exploration experience. The Immersive Image Explorer is also compatible with DJI L2 datasets.

“With the Immersive Image Explorer, our customers can step directly into their datasets, navigating captured environments as if they were on-site, while maintaining the accuracy and qualitythat LP360 is known for,” said Frank Darmayan, CEO of GeoCue. “It’s about bringing clarity, speed, and confidence to every project.”

Flexible Image Options

The Immersive Image Explorer supports both frame images imported directly from the integrated cameras on aerial, mobile, or handheld TrueView hardware, as well as fully 360° spherical images collected with the TrueView GO 360 Photo Kit or the FLIR LadyBug camera for mobile mapping. No matter which format is used, the Immersive Image Explorer gives you the ability to pan, scan, and evaluate your photos directly within LP360, ensuring every detail of your project can be examined with clarity and precision.

A New Dimension in LP360 Visualization

The Immersive Image Explorer can be found within the Immersive View Window in LP360. The Immersive View Window is now the fourth main visualization option in LP360, joining Map View (2D), 3D View (isometric), and Profile View (cross-sectional).

Rather than replacing these views, the Immersive View Window complements them by combining many of their core capabilities into a single, intuitive interface. It allows users to view, navigate, and analyze their 3D data from multiple angles in real-time. Within this environment, the Immersive Image Explorer unlocks the ability to overlay imagery directly onto point clouds, seamlessly merging photos and LiDAR into a unified, immersive perspective.

Key Capabilities

Handheld Advantage – Merge imagery from TrueView GO’s three cameras with dense point clouds for detailed indoor and close-range visualization.

Aerial Integration – Seamlessly incorporate images from TrueView aerial payloads to provide context-rich overviews of larger sites.

Immersive Deliverables – Create a “street view” style navigation of your own data, fully measurable and directly inside LP360.

Flexible Image Sources – Works with frame images from integrated TrueView cameras or 360° spherical imagery captured by the TrueView GO 360 Photo Kit or FLIR LadyBug camera for mobile mapping.

Transforming Workflows Across Industries

From confined interior corridors to expansive construction sites, the Immersive Image Explorer empowers surveyors, AEC professionals, and public safety teams to work more effectively. It allows users to verify coverage and spot potential gaps before ever leaving the job site, ensuring confidence in their datasets. By merging real-world imagery with LiDAR, inspection and validation workflows become faster and more accurate, giving teams a deeper understanding of their projects.

“The Immersive Image Explorer is more than a viewer, it’s a smarter way to navigate, validate, and present geospatial data,” added Vivien Heriard Dubreuil, CEO of mdGroup, GeoCue’sparent company. “By combining imagery and LiDAR in one immersive environment, we’re enabling professionals to work faster, communicate better, and deliver more value to their clients.”

With Immersive Image Explorer, LP360 continues to evolve as the industry’s most complete platform for LiDAR and imagery workflows, putting users directly inside their data with clarity and precision.

Raptor Tactical – Sentinel Inside Helmet Skullcrusher System

Monday, October 6th, 2025

Raptor Tactical created their Sentinel Inside Helmet Skullcrusher System as a modular component of a helmet system so that the user can shed the OPS-CORE ballistic shell when not needed but retain use of night vision devices.

The system allows for mounting any night vision device, cable management, counterweight pouch, or battery pack. It is compatible with the Wilcox lanyard and features a one-size-fits-all design, accommodating helmet sizes from Small to X-Large.

Conversion takes approximately 10 minutes to transform your existing ballistic OPS-CORE helmet into a fully functional system. An OPS-CORE chinstrap system is required for proper installation.
