RE: Liteye Thermal Imaging

Well everyone, I emailed them about a possible purchase for gesture
recognition.

Looks like the components are not so "dirt cheap" :) I guess there must be
some non-standard technology here.......

Still it would be pretty good putting this on a wearable... (but the size
looks still to big I think)

What does it take to make something like the Liteye?  I bet the components
are dirt cheap and they are charging way too much for it, like all of the
other monocular products out there..
