Required

Enclosure

Decreases weight from 1.219 to 0.396, increases durability?

• Chemical engineering
  • Plastics

Lenses

Decreases weight, increases upper zoom extreme, increases light gain, decreases size of vignetted areas, increases durability

• Optical engineering
  • Geometric optics

Optional

Variable Zoom

Decreases lower zoom extreme

• Mechanical engineering
  • Mechanics

Waterproofing

No idea yet, just throwing stuff out there

• Chemical engineering
  • Elastomers

Range Finding

This would present as a LED readout unless it is digital

• Optical engineering
  • Lasers

Direction Finding

This would present as a compass rose overlay

• Electrical engineering
  • Magnetism

Digital

Digitizing the image and displaying it allows for manipulation and overlays

• Electrical engineering
  • Optoelectronics

Image Stabilization

No idea yet, just throwing stuff out there

• Software engineering
  • Image processing

Night Vision

Increases limits of spectrum, decreases lowest intensity

• Optical engineering
  • Photodetectors

Range Finding

Digital version includes grid overlay with scale

• Software engineering
  • LIDAR
