This was recorded midway through development of the Seeker Weapon-Mounted Laser Rangefinder, and documents the journey from concept to prototypes to final design.
I mean, the, the whole idea from the beginning was to make a weapon-mounted rangefinder to, to an affordable price.
Because what's on the market today is quite expensive, even though they've been coming more and more, uh, similar products to the market to a lo- to lower prices, but still fairly expensive.
So that was like the, the starting point for us.
We want everybody to be able to use technology like this, but to, to a decent price.
And the goal, I, I mean, I mean, we wanna make it affordable, but there's certain things you can't sacrifice on, like it needs to be able to hold its zero.
Yeah.
Yeah
Um, and it needs to have some sort of ballistic calculator functionality, and we've managed to achieve all those things, which is awesome.
I think also, um, you know, what makes this really interesting is that, you know, not only does it have those basic functions, but for the price, to have all the integrated sensors is a big deal.
Yeah.
Exactly.
And we have all that, and there's also a few things compared to what's on the market today that sets this unit apart, I would say.
Uh, for example, let's start with the, the QD mount.
We have a integrated slim QD mount, just to make it easy to attach and detach the unit.
And you might think, "But why would I want to, to detach or, you know, uh, take off my already zeroed unit, uh, from the rifle? Because then I would have to re-zero it again." But that's not the case.
The whole, like, idea with it is to be able to take it off, put it on again, and then no impact shift at all.
Um-
