Um, you can get stereoscopic camera arrays now, which means you can get 3D video for humans doing remote piloting or for computers.

I have no doubt that vision technology will continue to excel.

My point is that it’s the judgement that comes from drivers that see, hear, and feel the movement of any vehicle in rough terrain is what is needed to effectively use armor.

Making choices about where to drive has to be done very quickly, some times intuitively. Computers and remote operators don’t do that very well on rough terrain.

That is what is fatal with armored warfare.
