Elizabeth Bruton a and Graeme Gooday b aJodrell Bank discovery centre, the University of Manchester, UK; bschool of Philosophy, religion and History of science, University of leeds, leeds, UKThe arts of combat have long motivated humans to extend the range of, and refine the capacities of, their senses. For centuries, innovations from both military and civilian origins have extended and enhanced those capacities in ever-escalating strategic efforts to secure crucial intelligence both to win battles and win new markets. Much is known about the visual technologies that co-evolved between civilian and military usage: the telescope in the seventeenth century, the observation balloon in the eighteenth century, and the submarine periscope in nineteenth century, extended to trench usage in the First World War. 1 These innovations helped either to extend the optical capacities of armies and navies beyond the conventional horizon, or to lessen the vulnerability of those obliged to scrutinize enemies at close hand.
