Of course, this is just the latest brainchild of the monster agency from another planet known as the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.  From remote control aviation to the human-machine interface, this entity continuously seeks more and more efficient means of retaining some control over what is left of a soldier's autonomy.  This is the purpose of technology, of course, at least according to the technocracy; corner the market on decision making in the field, be that field economic or military or, as in the case of fascist states, both.
