question.. i see they have a helmet that you can attach night vison binoculars to. then you cn scan without holding them up with your hands. I think this would be a great thing for just field binoculars. when your scanning the moutains for deer, elk , coyote etc. i know alot of people would say that is what a tripod is for but i think a helemt device would be better. has any one see one of these for just regular binoculars ? maybe i should invent one ? your thoughts. marty

Invent away......I can't wait to hang 30 or so ounces, off the front of my hunting helmet.......Don't forget some spare baler wire.....
 
huntsman... I take it you dont think it is a good idea. HA HA HA... I just think it would be a great thing for not only hunters but bird watcher, hikers etc. The night vision helmets work great. hands free, no fatigue. you could really cover a mt side for deer, elk, moose, bear hunting. i have spent hrs looking through binoculars and spotting scopes and man they get heavy fast. no fun. marty

I reckon I'm puzzled here.....Bino's and spotters won't get heavy, or give neck fatigue while hanging from the front of your tactical/suburban birdwatching helmet? but they wear yer arms out? What gives?

The helmet idea is good, though. I imagine that lottsa folks want the fashion statement that a full-blown kevlar battle hat will give their friends in social situations. The added protection from falling tree branches and other nefarious head injury fodder, is just an another side bonus. Heck, you could even adapt yer gizmo to fit those neat little cowboy-style hardhats for the construction worker crowd. Think hotcakes, as in sales..... You's gonna be RICH.....
 
And for those too poor to afford proper nightvision devices, you could tape a regular ol' flashlight to the dome and use the binocs that you already have, AT NIGHT.......Thank me with prototypes......
 
Maybe a line of padded chin rest things, kinda like the V-type rifle rests, on bipod-like deallies could really add to the optical stability of your new invention. Maybe a little cart thing, too. You could wheel it into your birdwatching/glassing area, fold out the integrated glassing chair/benchrest, unfold the chinrest, put on the bino lid and, voila, yer ready to go. With NO pesky arm fatigue from holding those heavy, unsteady glasses.... It'll be big.....
 
Huntsman you seem like a pretty nice guy.
