They already have glasses that make you blind to threats, they give them out at the Democratic conventions.
All these are really doing is photo analysis. Intel analysts study photos of both known and unknown things and learn to tell what they are seeing. Contrary to popular belief sat photos aren't always as clear cut as in the movies, it more or less photographic artifact forensics. In recent years this has been assisted by computers, now they want to put that same tech in bino's. Example; I look out into the desert, pixel region L29-43 x V10-13 show resemblance to a tank, or maybe rotor wash. All I see is tan pixels moving around, If I can even see them. The bino's are helping me not overlook things. These would be great in search and rescue, a single swimmer in the vast ocean creates a slight discoloration of a pixel, and the bino's alert you to a possible survivor!
