Practical? Possible? Future vaporware? If not, how long until it's under strict lockdown?

That's gonna cost a really pretty shiny penny. And seems like a really cool gadget/toy thing. That being said. I want one. Oooo shiny

Re: TrackingPoint

This is both possible and practical with modern technology. Whether it's vaporware or not is another question altogether; the cost of developing such technology is rather steep, and the potential number of customers is rather low. This creates quite a formidable obstacle to establishing a viable business case.

just like an F16 you paint the target to get "lock on" Then it Tracks the target until you run the cross hairs over the target and it takes the shot for you! The target can be running and as long as you get a "LOCK" Its over!
