If you have high bandwidth and flash, this is a pretty interesting site.

If
you happen to have 50 million or so, it is even relevant.

Examples of EVS (Enhanced Vision System) technology. Amazing technology.

You're right Michael, it is great to use. I first used EVS in the B-52 in
1981. I think it had been installed about 10-15 years earlier. In the
Gulfstream video, the ground taxi at night video gave me the impression that
it only looked straight ahead, couldn't look around the corner you were
turning. Ours was steerable giving you the ability to look around the
corner you were approaching. This is better in that it's displayed on a
HUD. We didn't have those. I'm sure this technology, 30 years later, is
more dependable too.
