Ukraine using Steam Deck to operate battlefield guns

Better known for hosting multiplayer games like Halo and Black Myth Wukong, Steam Deck has now found new use in the Ukraine conflict .

Ukrainian military engineers are connecting gun turrets to Steam Deck, and firing off shots at a distance with no risk to troops on the ground.

Army chiefs say the new ‘robots on the front line’ are saving lives, without compromising weaponry.

  1. Ukraine needs to wise up and keep western media away from their ideas. All western media is doing is feeding information to the Russians and media types aren't intelligent enough to figure that out.

  2. I mean nah it would work on any game controller. Anyone can 3d print an auto turret. Thats not hard. Theres some already existing consumer turret stuff actually

  3. A cheaper drone can take this out even without fiber optics, just home in on the wireless steam deck signal yikes

  4. während die einen behaupten, dass die NATO Waffensysteme in der Ukraine testen, "betteln" die Ukrainer förmlich nach Waffennachschub und improvisieren einfach neue Waffenmöglichkeiten. Äh und Russland? Ja, hab gehört dass die Schaumplatten oder Pappe in ihren Plattenträgern haben, damit alles authentisch aussieht ^^ (bei Gorevideos kann man schon gut sehen, wie die Ausrüstung russischer Soldaten hart aufplatzen bei Treffern, das kann man so bei ukrainischen Verlusten nicht so sehen) Egal wie es da unten aussieht, Russland wird nicht nur den Krieg sondern auch sein Gesicht verlieren. Putin zieht sein Ego seiner "Weisheit" vor und bald ist die Heulerei groß

  5. The steam deck is not aimed at "multiplayer" games but single player games. It is a portable device to play mainly without connection. And proton which runs the games on the steam deck is not compatible with a lot of multiplayer games.
    So just say games.
    Black myth Wukong and Hogwarts Legacy are single player games

  6. "Multiplayer games like Black Myth Wukong and Hogwarts Legacy" of ALL multiplayer games you mentioned two single-player games :'(
