The One-Shot system; aimbot?
Well, calling it an aimbot is probably a bit too much but the One-Shot system takes a lot of the guesswork out of aiming and firing a sniper rifle.

Call me old-fashioned, but I don't think they can replace the human factor with an Aimbot. But that's me.

Jeff Cooper advocated four basic rules of gun safety:
1) All guns are always loaded. Even if they are not, treat them as if they are.
2) Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
3) Keep your finger off the trigger till your sights are on the target.
4) Identify your target, and what is behind it.

My thoughts exactly, M24 but I'd like to keep an open mind about this particular device. I think it's still going to take a thorough knowledge of ballistics and shooting to use it. I guess we won't know till they actually field it and start using it.

they already had mounted sniper systems operated via computer many years ago ,add to it recent advancements in image analysis and why not.
aim bots in games like Counter Strike or newer Battlefield Bad Company 2 are far superior of human operator.
