And the result. ENVG-B is the the Overmatch. Futures Command is up and running in the ATX and it is a priority as they are hiring like crazy. (eMagin inside the ENVG-B)

Additionally, this year the Army tested a new binocular with a wireless connection to rifle sites. The Enhanced Night Vision Goggle-Binocular, or ENVG-B, is scheduled for release to selected units sometime in fiscal year 2019.

The new device has both night vision and thermal-sensing capabilities and stereoscopic binocular depth perception, providing Soldiers with an illusion of depth on a flat image. 

During testing, Soldiers had a 100 percent improvement in weapons qualifications, along with a 300 percent increase in detection of targets in day and night environments, and a 30 to 50 percent decrease in the time taken to shoot a target. 

Soldiers that tested the new ENVG-B considered it to be "a game changer."
