Literally what the army is going for

@CTL lemme look at that real quick

yeah, and using a similar WP tube we had I couldnt see him but he could see me kinda deal

We've been saying IVAS for the whole conversation

Are you fucking retarded?

It's basically a program for a google glass type headset for HUD/augmented reality, with integrated day/night optics @CDRCC

First article I saw on it only mentioned digital thermal? Is NVG in as well, just not mentioned?

damn, is the l3 anvis tube really that powerful?

Currently it's just a big VR headset for training, and yes

we're on stp 1

I mean, that's a fair point I guess. The price point for a headset with those kinds of capabilities would be 20k+ though, and absolutely not available for civ market for next 10-20 years

me on the left

how my nods finna be lookin in 2025

its pretty powerful yeah.

Yeah, that's my point, is that digital development is already at a fixed rate due to mil spending and demand

Yeah and any company worth anything won't waste their time with the civilian market until the military is good to go, which will take 10-20 years

So people buying 100k worth of auroras means nothing to the billions that they're getting from the army

Well, the Aurora isn't looking for that kind of market - it's one of the first "viable" DNVG's oriented to the civ market IMO

Its not viable at all

and 100K is a rather low estimate IMO, that's 200 units only

@CDRCC are you just a sionyx shill

not really, 100k is like 100 units + the cost of delivering the product

you'd probably get better reception and development from directly funding a aliexpress dealer than buying the auroras and waiting for R&D from them

doesnt the aurora have a 4 second delay lmao

is it really that bad

it's like 1~

a little less

epic

Thats still shit for ground use

I need DNVG with G-sync

Turn V-sync on too

sionyx isn't even really marketing the aurora as being a nod, which is a smart move on their part

I'm basically positing that there is nothing bad that would come out of introducing poors to a cheaper option for NVG, since I'm optimistic about both DNVG and future growth in terms of number of people getting in to NVG

Bruh lemme get that ray tracing

its a nightvision camera. They're competing in the same market as gopro for outdoor action cams, they're not trying to compete with niggas making pvs14s

Idk about you but moon goon squadding is pretty fun

The price won't go down until digital becomes more viable which is decades away

It's a low light action camera

Not night vision at all
