A particular challenge during this exchange is the encounter of specific scientific and military terminologies, which sometimes hamper the communication and hence make it difficult to reach decisions for the future. This contribution presents a methodological approach that brings scientific expertise and the military or security customers´ competence together. The aim of this approach is twofold, namely to derive hot topics in future technologies as well as new technological perspectives and recommendations in a military or security context.enemerging technologiestechnology forecastingsecuritymilitarytechnical communicationTalking about technologies: Science meets Militaryconference paper
