The comment section of the page is predictably full of hand wringing over how this can turn anybody into a sniper. While it is an interesting setup (I'd love to know more about the image processing on board), this device would really not be very useful for sniping.<p>1) Laser range finder. It will give away your position to anybody with a detector (yes, they exist and those who you would expect to have them do). Also, unnecessary for actual sniping. One of the first things you do when you setup a hide is do a range card - you can do that with a hand held laser range finder, but more often than not you just use simple algebra and known object sizes (height of telephone polls, car widths, width of men's shoulders, etc).<p>2) Wind. This thing only accounts for bullet drop. A light breeze will push 5.56 far enough off target at 500 yards that you can easily miss man sized targets. At 300 yards wind plays a role in shot placement within a man sized target, at 200 yards you can disregard most wind. At that range you do not want a scope, as it delays target acquisition and reduces field of view.<p>3) Target marking. It is very rare for a sniping target to remain stationary, so unless their image processing is really clever - this is going to be a much greater hindrance than help. This isn't really a problem for hunters, because they rarely take a shot at critters on the move (except with shotguns). I'd be pretty surprised if their tracking software can handle vanishing targets (transitions in and out of concealment like a window or bush).<p>It is a great toy for hunters with money, but it isn't going to turn anybody into a sniper.
