Project Gazelle

One of those "duh, why didn't I think of it?" brilliant ideas that's completely obvious in retrospect: Project Gazelle is a firearm that lets you tag your target in your view, and then next time the crosshairs cross the target it fires. Basically, you get to virtually make the shot a couple of times until you get it right, then just wave the gun 'til you get it in the right place.

Presumably, from the HUD, it also includes doing wind calculations.

Looks like their web site will be at http://tracking-point.com/ . A few other references:
