    Nothing new under the sun.
    This idea has been knocking around since the 1920s
    the latest has been to combine micro cctv cameras in rifle scopes,transmitting back to a base station.
    Idea was that it was to be used by police sniper units,so that if there was ever any lawsuits issued for wrongful killing of hostages or criminals after the sniper was given a green light, you would have actual footage of what the sniper saw.

    Trouble is; they were /are expensive almost double the price of the unmodified first class sniper glass.
    Their signal range is limited and likely to be interferd with with buildings etc.
    They cant take much abuse as a normal scope can.
    Short battery life in transmitter and camera
    Questionable value as evidence as it is digital footage which can be tamperd with.
    nice idea in a perfect world.in reality it needs more time and work
