The U.S. Army Could Get The Handheld Motion Tracker From 'Aliens'

The device can see people—and maybe Xenomorphs—through walls.

    The U.S. Army just funded a startup developing a handheld radar system.

    The radar can “see” people through walls.

    The system bears more than a passing resemblance , in purpose and appearance, to the motion tracker from the film Aliens.

The U.S. Army just awarded a quarter million dollars in funding to a startup working on a handheld sensor designed to detect people through walls. The Lumineye is a handheld device smaller than a tablet that uses radar technology to detect people, using radar waves that can pass through solid matter.
