    I can’t remember where I saw it on but I remember watching a show years ago that went over prototypes, the episode that stuck with me was a back up cam prototype that was meant for semi trucks where it gave a near 360 view with 6 screens. Why can’t we have that? It’s not like you need multiple screens nowadays unlike 2007.

    Also I can’t remember much else from that show other than one where they were going over how special forces was playing around with hybrid infrared NVG goggles. I was a bored 7 year old so I don’t remember jack.

      They do have that. My friend had a Nissan Rogue like 5 or 6 years ago (it was totalled in a crash) with a 360 degree view on the screen when you put it in reverse.

      we don’t even need that many screens, you can make lenses with a wider fov. but it would probably be too confusing for most people, or just make them pay even less attention to what’s not on it. or they would misjudge how far away stuff is etc
