The US Army's new rifle has a laser rangefinder and grenade launcher
built in. The laser is used to determine the distance at which to
explode
the grenade, so as to defeat (kill) entrenched infantry. Available now!
The Land Warrior program had one goal of every soldier carrying a
camera
and laser rangefinder/designator. So that every soldier had the ability
to
call in laser designated munitions, or to see around obstacles/smoke
using
computed vision.
