Personal Eye System (PES) blue force tracking and situational awareness for
your Android device.
By: Sal Palma
Ive been working on this review (on and off)
for just about a year so its long overdue, but
its hard to deliver a credible review for the
reader with only a cursory understanding of the
subject; ergo, throughout the year, Ive spent
hours interacting with Mil Sistemika engineers
learning all of PES nuances and on a couple of
occasions doing a little debugging. That
experience has resulted in a thorough
understanding of this apps impressive
capabilities along with a genuine appreciation
the work MIL Sistemika has put into PES. A brief
background is appropriate.
MIL Sistemika is based in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
The company offers a number of C.O.T.S.
software products focused on Command &
Control applications, covering all relevant levels
that range from the individual soldier to top
(planning) levels of the military command
structure. Their software supports sensor &
weapon integration, GIS navigation and
mapping systems, communications suits, and
integrated training tools.
Personal Eye System (PES) is part of the
companys C4I products marketed as a
Dismounted Soldier System. PES is a personal
tracking, navigation and data sharing
application aimed at soldiers, police, security
forces, emergency services and others that
need topographic navigation, tracking, blue
force tracking and common operational picture
sharing. The application is designed to run on
popular Android platforms that can be used as a
Personal Eye System (PES) blue force tracking and situational awareness for your
Android device.
The PES display provides a wealth of
information. Along the top border, the operator
sees his or her position, which can be displayed
in MGRS, Lat & Log or UTM formats, terrain
elevation, heading, speed and fix precision
which throughout my review was consistently
at or better than 8 meters. Obviously, that level
of precision is capable of degradation in dense
forest or urban centers.
PES is configurable to present position
information in primary, secondary or tertiary
forms consisting of MGRS, which is the military
grid system, at up to 5 digit precision, Lat and
Long, in decimal format or minutes and
seconds, and UTM or Universal Transverse
Mercator system. The system I used throughout
this review is MGRS with Easting and Northing
properly displayed in 5 digit precision.

in the professional version operates a laser
range finder.
As a commander or squad leader, I can identify
a point on the map as a point of interest. That
designation is distributed to all unit members
via PES server. The recipient can then touch the
POI icon opening a menu that provides access
to relevant information about the POI including
a Quick Nav function which provides the direct
route including distance and heading
information from the unit members current
position to the POI.

To illustrate the power of COP, Ive directed an
assault on an air strip. The objective was to
clear and secure the airfield and deny enemy
access.

training facilities or any organization that
benefits from blue force tracking and real-time
coordination of remotely deployed units. PES
can utilize Wi-Fi, 3G/4G as well as any satellite
hub like Iridiums GO.
