The link is broke but came across this while researching spotters. Anybody heard anything?

Nice to see Swaro playing with this. Pictures look interesting…spotter first strategy is also interesting.
 
Don't stop there. Throw RF and a ballistic solver and I'll find $10k

They have binos that will tell you what species of bird is in view. They should tell us what species of mammal walks in view + what it scores also.

Kinda crazy to think where the future is going.

One of the next steps will probably be AI that finds the the animal for you by recognizing the shape or something.
 
I had multiple days this year where the wind was blowing so hard I couldn’t tell what kind of buck I was looking at through my spotter at less than 500 yards, let alone further. This could be very useful.

You can always look at what birders were doing 10 years ago to predict what hunters will be doing in 3-5 years.

Right now it's IS everything just like birders in 2012. Next it'll be back to big eyes or 115 spotters for everything. Then it'll be 50mm spotters with computers in them.

Guys I work with do this already. Game-cam files though, not real time, yet. They can do species ID with a declared confidence range. Birds, rodents, weasels, deer, people, cars. The prompt is basically "what do you see in the 10k pictures in this file directory."

Image stabilization is useful on boats too.
 
Sig sells a 16-32x60 spotter with image stabilization. I haven’t handled it, but I have sampled their binoculars with stabilization and was impressed.
 
THe Swarovski AX visio is the one with built in camera and display built in like range finders. Cool feature is for tour guides I think the camera can live stream the image to everyones phone. Maybe 20 max?

As to recognising antlers and picking out animals with tech now its trivial to do this. You could tether a camera to your smartphone running AI, could be an add on to your binocular. Its good theyre trying new products and ideas.
