What does it do. It is supposed to use your iphone as an optic?
From looking at their detail-free site:
It looks like a mount for the phone, which is supposed to use its camera to act as an optic. Camera sees scene, their app overlays a crosshair image, you zero by moving the application's crosshair on the phone.
Meaning, of course, that it is a $129 plastic weapon-mount clamp for a phone that isn't rated for recoil.
More impressive would be a shock and recoil-proof camera/scope that mounts on the weapon that you could mechanically zero and tie into your phone/screen/whatever via Bluetooth 4. But that isn't what this is.

129 does seem kind of high for what it is. Its got potential as a concept, i would say. I would not risk my Iphone on it.

That has been around for a couple of years in fact.
I don't get it... buy what do I know, I still use iron sites on most of my guns.
