Just saw a piece on the news today. French have a rifle with an optic on it
that feeds (via I think RF or IR) a monocle on the helmet of the user. Lets
the user fire around building corners and over cover while only exposing his
hands since he can sight accurately through
the rifle remote sight - not perfect, but cuts your risks in an urban
environment.

We just keep on churning out newer and better tools of destruction.
