I mean how hard is it to give us tiny wipers on them. Cmon now.
Or just heat the lenses, air force and army have been doing it for fucking decades. You never hear about an F18 TGP or Abrams commander sight "fogging up" lol
The commenter is talking about adding heaters, not anti-aircraft weaponry. There’s plenty of examples of things developed by the military that are used in civilian products.
He said nothing of the sort about heaters, only to "heat" the lenses
What do you suppose could “heat” the lenses?
Seems Reddit has joined us. Only a matter of time.
It's probably internal fogging because the units aren't well sealed.
They aren't normally sealed in most integrations, but will often have heater wires around them or embedded in the windshield that will heat up the windshield/sensor enclosure, just like the defog on a rear window or mirrors.
