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

2019-12-01 21:47:01 UTC  

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

2019-12-01 21:47:16 UTC  

Its not viable at all

2019-12-01 21:47:19 UTC  

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

2019-12-01 21:47:22 UTC  

@CDRCC are you just a sionyx shill

2019-12-01 21:47:40 UTC  

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

2019-12-01 21:47:42 UTC  

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

2019-12-01 21:47:45 UTC  

doesnt the aurora have a 4 second delay lmao

2019-12-01 21:47:53 UTC  

is it really that bad

2019-12-01 21:47:53 UTC  

it's like 1~

2019-12-01 21:47:59 UTC  

a little less

2019-12-01 21:48:04 UTC  

epic

2019-12-01 21:48:13 UTC  

Thats still shit for ground use

2019-12-01 21:48:16 UTC  

I need DNVG with G-sync

2019-12-01 21:48:23 UTC  

Turn V-sync on too

2019-12-01 21:48:24 UTC  

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

2019-12-01 21:48:30 UTC  

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

2019-12-01 21:48:34 UTC  

Bruh lemme get that ray tracing

2019-12-01 21:48:50 UTC  

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

2019-12-01 21:48:53 UTC  

Idk about you but moon goon squadding is pretty fun

2019-12-01 21:48:59 UTC  

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

2019-12-01 21:49:00 UTC  

It's a low light action camera

2019-12-01 21:49:04 UTC  

Not night vision at all

2019-12-01 21:49:12 UTC  

aye bruh hold up my aurora is tryna catch up

2019-12-01 21:49:23 UTC  

@CDRCC yeah have fun moon gooning with your bud who needs 500 mw of IR light to see

2019-12-01 21:49:27 UTC  

And tbh, the Aurora just offers me 1. more squaddies even if they're not as gucci and 2. even more appealing targets to call people poors

2019-12-01 21:49:39 UTC  

You can still do shit at night without NODs

2019-12-01 21:49:41 UTC  

I mean that's a bad optimism because, like I said, the real development is done by the military programs and the rest will trickle down like it always does. The current DNVGs are using the same sensors from thing like Sony action cams @CDRCC

2019-12-01 21:49:56 UTC  

I wouldn't let anyone I called a squaddie buy such a useless POS

2019-12-01 21:49:57 UTC  

The only thing stopping you is you

2019-12-01 21:50:10 UTC  

I mean, you can fuck around with flashlights i guess, but then there's not much point in NODs

2019-12-01 21:50:13 UTC  

the only thing stopping you from being straight is you

2019-12-01 21:50:24 UTC  

Aurora is basically a high ISO camera

2019-12-01 21:50:39 UTC  

you really do need to pay to play man. $1000 is basically the buy in even just for poorfag squaddie shit

2019-12-01 21:50:44 UTC  

even so, Sony does it better 😏

2019-12-01 21:50:47 UTC  

For the poorfag in your life with a PSA AR and a bump helmet, it's a pretty nice option

2019-12-01 21:50:58 UTC  

If a poorfag comes to you and asks if he should buy a Taurus, you say no, save up and get something good
If a poorfag comes to you and asks if he should buy AR500, you say no, save up and get something good
If a poorfag comes to you and asks if he should buy condor, you say no, save up and get something good

2019-12-01 21:51:07 UTC  

aurora is real life lag

2019-12-01 21:51:10 UTC  

exactly

2019-12-01 21:51:12 UTC  

But when it comes to nods? Fuck no bro buy that taurus, it's better than nothing!
