ISAC’s constant monitoring of agents’ vitals is already here.

Current reality:
* Smartwatches track: - Heart rate - Blood oxygen - ECG - Stress levels
* Military-grade wearables can monitor: - Hydration - Fatigue - Heat injury risk
* Battlefield IoT systems already transmit vitals to command centers

What’s missing:
Reliability under combat conditions (blood, shock, trauma confuse sensors).

Verdict: Fully feasible, already deployed in limited military and emergency contexts.

===== “Hostiles detected.” =====

Current reality:
* AI-assisted video analysis can: - Detect humans - Identify weapons - Track movement patterns
* Acoustic gunshot detection exists (ShotSpotter)
* Drones + computer vision already assist troops

Limitations:
* Urban clutter
* False positives
* Occlusion (walls, smoke, darkness)
* Hard to determine intent

ISAC’s accuracy and confidence are exaggerated.

Verdict: Feasible, but far less reliable than portrayed.

===== ISAC’s ability to keep agents connected in a collapsed city is very realistic. =====

Current reality:
* Mesh networks
* Satellite uplinks
* Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs)
* Encrypted military comms

Used today by:
* Special forces
* Disaster response teams
* Protestors and journalists in blackouts

Verdict: 100% feasible.

===== ISAC locking or unlocking SHD tech is plausible. =====

Real analogs:
* Hardware attestation
* Secure enclaves
* Kill-switches in military drones
* Zero-trust architectures

But:
* Total lockout based on rule violation is dangerous
* In real life, humans override these systems constantly

Verdict: Technically feasible, politically controversial.

===== ISAC combining: =====
* Surveillance
* Infrastructure data
* Agent reports
* Civilian systems

This already exists in intelligence agencies—but not cleanly.

Problem:
Data fusion works well in stable environments. It collapses under:
* Missing data
* False reports
* Sensor loss
* Adversarial deception

Verdict: Possible, but fragile.
