I wasn't sure if this should go under "Ammo" or "Optics", so I split the difference and posted it here
:p

I am so confused right now. We can kill people from space, but tomorrow is April 1st. It's like a ping pong match in my head between belief and disbelief, I should go home now.

Supposedly the next generation ones will be cheaper. These first-gen ones stabilize the camera against bullet spin with a gyro and tiny bearing races, but the next gen will use software correction to remove the spin from the video and bring the cost down by a projected $3.69/rd.

What kind of mark up is that? They claim an MSRP of $99.99 for a box of ten!

Like I reported elsewhere:

The current ones are so expensive because the tiny bearing races have to be assembled by hand by nearsighted orphans in Pakistani sweatshops who have both the vision and the tiny, dextrous hands to do the work.

I'm not sure how useful that really is, but the cool factor is off the charts.

Pretty interesting...
I wonder how they're streaming the imagery from the bullet to the iPhone... neither Bluetooth nor WiFi will carry 100 yds or more...


Or, looking at my calendar... is this just posted a day early?

Excellent use of drone footage to April fools everyone.

Why no footage inside of the barrel I ask?

They failed to mention the internal 1.1 Jiggawatt flux capacitor. Initial testing was conducted with an Arc Reactor but that proved to be susceptible to high centrifugal forces.

I hear this is a product that frequently gets lost in shipment.
