  • Ineresting Seal Team 6 info

    There is an interesting rumor about Seal Team 6 hardware appearing on the net, starting a couple days ago on military sites. I first heard of this about a week ago and didn't say anything, but now that it's breaking....

    Back in 2009 IEEE Spectrum reported that the University of Washington was working on digital contact lenses that could potentially augment vision, including digital overlays etc.

    Link....

    Since then transparent displays, electronically focussable silicone optics and other enabling techs have been released.

    The leaked info is that this tech has evolved into night vision contact lenses, and that they may have been used in the Bin Laden raid. Some rumors say power is supplied by blinking, others not. All say the field of view is 100°-120° wide and 40°-50° high.

    This would be a quantum leap in night vision tech, and if combined with the coming tiny high resolution sensors could also provide IR, telescopic and microscopic functions.

    I'd have given my right arm to have these in college
