Someone once said that the "military intelligence" was a contradiction in terms, but what is undeniable is that the current weapons is becoming increasingly clever at times thanks to (or because of) new technologies. The rifle you see something below is manufactured by TrackingPoint and might seem a sniper rifle ordinary, but actually carrying a computerized system that ensures that des always on target. It works with the Linux operating system on board.

The gun is one of those inventions novel recently presented at the CES2013 and more than one will relate it with advanced weapons that appear in video games and classic titles like Counter Strike.

The system consists of a camera and a screen in the back to replace the classic peephole in these weapons. The computerized system captures images against the rifle, processes and shows you the screen on a grid. Then you just have to select the target you want to shoot and hold the trigger. Trying target until the target matches the grid and not worry about anything else, because when the direction is correct the system automatically triggers. Almost as in a video game, no matter if you have never shot a gun.

To top it off, the system can connect wirelessly to an iPad or iPhone screen from which you can help select the targets.

This means it is hard to fail, because computers never fail right?, At least if you use Linux, because someone will say that using another operating system obtuvieras perhaps what would be a nice blue background with many lyrics unintelligible above. In any case another invention designed to achieve technological eerily infallible weapon. If you want one you can buy for about 15,000 euros, including an iPad.
