Shotview

We remember a smart aiming rifle that was introduced by Trackingpoint in not so distant past and was capable of aiming automatically for the user. All that the user had to do was to tag the target and the aiming would be done autonomously. According to the company, the user was guaranteed to hit the target every single time. However, it seems as if the company was not very pleased with this technology and decided to bring more to the user.Shotview 7 Shotview 4 Shotview 3

Their recent invention will allow you to see around corners, take aim and fire. The folks at the Trackingpoint are calling it Shotview and the system is capable of pairing your smart rifle to your phone, tablet or Google Glass. This results in combining your sight and what the rifle’s barrel is pointing at. All this streaming is carried out in real time.
