The Liteye cameras are long wave length IR, they use ambient temp sensors. More info here http://www.liteye.com/pdf/bolometer.pdf This is serious wearable weaponry tech. They come in three versions: 1) helmet mounted 2) handheld 3) weapons mounted, thermal imager on weapon, display on helmet The Liteye site says they are low cost ... yeah, relative to other real night vision scopes ... and by military cost standards. Looks like you have to be in the army to get all of the really good tech. Too bad that requires killing and/or getting killed :( -- Doug -- Subscription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with subject of "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" toWear-Hard Mailing List Archive (searchable): http://wearables.blu.org please, Please, *PLEASE* don't subscribe through a forward/false domain
