The sight machine names automated vision systems that make targeting decisions without human operators. Satellites employ electro-optical systems for automatic terrain recognition. Missiles use cameras and pattern-matching algorithms to identify and track targets.
This represents the culmination of perception logistics. Future warfare will feature cybernetic vision systems operating at speeds exceeding human capacities. The confusion of eye and weapon becomes absolute through automation.
