Abstract

Communication of information between different battlefield participants (e.g., soldiers) may improve battle results. Further, the more information communicated, the more the improvement. During battle several different components may be used. These include, for example, rifles, scopes, grenade launchers and communication devices. Some of these components may provide for different views and angles of attack in a battlefield situation. The invention is directed towards a weapon that provides information regarding its position and orientation to a central location that can interpret and display this information. In particular, there is provided herein a networked battle system comprising: a communication network; a first rifle that includes at least one accessory coupled thereto that determines a bearing of the first rifle; a communication element coupled to the rifle allowing the at least one accessory to provide bearing information to the communication network; and a battle management system in communication with the first rifle through the communication network that receives the bearing information from the accessory and updates a battle plan based on the bearing information to form an updated battle plan where the updated battle plan is a map that includes an indication of a location of a target; and a personal data assistant having a display screen and coupled to the first rifle that displays a location of a target on a map, wherein the display screen can receive information from the user.
