Enhanced Senses Equipment Review

This is the next evolution of the Immersive Neural Rig. An augmented reality helmet for pilots of 50-75 ton mecha, it uses biofeedback electrodes to allow the user to directly communicate with his or her mecha and projects an artificial overlay on top of your actual view through the goggles.  The helmet itself connects to the Mecha's sensors in the cockpit via a bioptic dongle.  The overlay then illuminates targets in a bimodal fashion: You can set it to Active Mode and have data gathered from the sensors stream in a scrolling manner on the overlay to the sides of each lit up target you focus on, or, if you feel like you're having information overload you can switch it to the other mode: Passive  Visual.  In Passive Visual mode the streaming environmental data is hidden in the background and a simplified view in which only the targets are illuminated takes the forefront.

This helmet gives 8 precision, an increased crit-kill percentage of 3, and a 5% increased chance of double damage.  It's priced at 810 Ferrite, 300 Bioptics and 43 Niodes.
