laser sniper detector?

[AskHack]

Yea that is neat and all but anyone with night vision on is going to see you shining a huge ass beam and shoot you dead.

[burnwood]

"Good old iron sights would evade this sniper detector instrument". Well if the enemy refrained from using scopes and went over to iron sights we have dealt him a serius blow when it comes to combat efficiency, since iron sights are far inferior. Can we achieve this it is worth using this equipment. The big minus is if the enemy is using laser detectors and then spots our emitted laser.

[TrickyNekro]

And you could easily make a system to spread aluminum foils over a very large area... But should be very handy in forest conditions...

[rocketplumber]

So the enemy will quickly learn to place bicycle reflectors all over the freaking place. like chaff to confuse radar. 100 reflectors and one sniper, where is he?

[Grospoliner]

Actually a red coating would absorb the lights within the red branch of the spectrum.

[DtCKclan]

what happens if you lens had a blue tint,, wouldn't that make you invisible because blue absorbs infrared

[Shaggynz]

hmmm can it find beer bottles too?

[rrr1sportrider]

Good old iron sights would evade this sniper dector instrument.

[jellofast]

are red dot scopes detected?

[rrr1sportrider]

Why the hell not??? red dot scopes still have a lens.

[jellofast]

so it can detect lasers and lens

[ironfalcon100]

At the expense of longer-range accuracy.

[napalmstrike2007]

but there is something called coated lenses. it should stop any mirroring of light( in films we see the lenses of snipers because of suns glare on them today coated lenses prevent this it uses interference of light to stop any reflections) but it can stop only light between some wavelenghts and ir light is not between it i think. but if this thing gets common they will make it cover ir light too

[elleray6]

@rrr1sportrider

guess what. your retinas are reflective too.

[andm300]

this is tru and very power full and cheap

[DoktorJeep]

Now I know what to do with all those bags of magnifying glasses from the dollar store.

[Paulo412349]

Ohh yeah, did you see how this guy is exposed? In real combat situation a bullet would be put on his head long before he could locate them...

[glendelio]

@Paulo412349 This is a very good system ! They should integrated this system in a 50cal remote controlled turret on a armed vehicle. who will win then ?

[tkxg]

pathfinder lol!!!

[parahx]

you get hit by a sniper bullet before you hear it. if its fatal, you would never hear the gunfire

[scarface702509]

this isnt always tru...greatly depends on distance from target and also what round you intend to put down range...

[youloveityouslags]

man, i would have been all "BOOOOOOOM HEADSHOT" up in his ass

[NallePu]

240m? Military snipers shoot from 1000m....weeee

[joinarnold]

This product can detect snipers to 1200m.

[joinarnold]

This unit can detect optics up to 1200 Meters!

[NallePu]

Hehe :-D

[avion85]

or its a stunt to make american parent sleep easier while their boys are in Iraq

[sCHISMSX]

According to a wired article that linked this, It'll be vehicle mounted and operate 24/7...

[pathfinder]

It probably comes with a warning that says "Snipers in mirrors are closer than they appear"

[obesuspuer88]

hey i see a sni *bang*. What was that? OH MY GOD!

[SuperSexyCommando]

ummm "scope covered"? open it before shooting?

this shit fucking remind me of polish submarines with screendoors.

[joinarnold]

No screen or filter can fool this product.

Thanks. TPL

[adammerlinsmith]

What about electronic scopes? That is, ones without lenses, that take a digital image and enhance / magnify it. I'm sure they've got those somewhere, haha.

[charger223]

well, i don't think anyone would call this system a perfect solution. But let's face it, it is a pretty good tool to detect rag-tag snipers, in some shithole country.

[GirlsRTarget4Eugenic]

charger223--so my videos about the gov using 166,000 Nagasaki Bombs Worth of Depleted uranium

ammunition from just one bomb factory out of 4 manufacturers every day is not a important video and you think i should pull my videos,,,well Fuck you Monster!!

when the whole would went nuts over India's and Pakistani setting off 18 nuclear bobs ,u say 166,000 a day of the same radiation is bothering you fuck you monster

[HoodsTV]

They would probably use this on a machine.

[viigraphix]

so the time he spends looking for the sninper, the sniper shoots him before he can say exactly where he is :)

[Zeem411]

Iron sights are good up to 300 yards for me. Spot the dude with the funny binoculars and drill him first.

[Ahippi]

Im sure the sniper can also use a filter and im sure a good sniper wont let you stand there alive very long if he spot you first . dumb project.

[joinarnold]

No filter can fool this product. Many groups in the military are successfully using this product. This product not only can find snipers but also scopes and binoculars.

[Immutef]

The time it took to track down the sniper.. the spotter would be dead. The Juba are no joke.

[lindatran]

vehicle mounted

[Immutef]

Ok. If so, how many you think Bush will get down there in a timely manner? Do you have confidence in that??

[gavingoo]

Million dollar system, 10 cents to tint the scope and evade it.

[mclifer]

Good, then you could get the spotter/camera man too. Not a big fan of Sovenia eh?

[ajaxrobinson]

it would be very useful out of an urban environment though

[razorseal]

yeah im sure thats how it works... it shoots an IR light which gets picked up by the mirage-1200

[fintheman]

Does anyone have a clue how this works? Does the light some bounce off the reflection off the optics of the scope?

[tehsimo]

yeah it just shoots light out and any reflections appear as bright lights on the view. and theres no way for the Ts to counteract either, since they gotta have polished glass optics :D woot

[joinarnold]

Basically that is right, but it is much more sophisticated than that. It only highlights items that have the characteristics of optics, such as scopes or binoculars. Eyeglasses, basic lenses would not show up.
