If the Pentagon were given this problem, we'd spend a decade and many millions funding contracted R&D projects to evaluate alternatives, a couple more years and millions arguing and negotiating over requirements, a bunch of competitive prototypes demonstrated, a source selection, a protest of the result, a development contract eventually awarded to productize the winning interface, the result would be unaffordable for its original purpose, other companies wouldn't adopt it because they hadn't invented it, something would get produced if for no other reason to show some return on the investment, but by the time that happened it would already be obsolete. Don't ask me how I know this :)
