No and no. Just Vision Enhancements from SR4.

Why do you want a barometer in your goggles?

Radar, as TheScrivener said, is a Sensor, so it has to be installed in a Sensor Package. Because some dev wasn't thinking, this is *different* from Ultrasound, which is obviously also a Sensor, not a Visual Enhancement. Sigh. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Well I am doing an outdoorsman/druid char and hes an albino. I was wanting the baro in the goggles, which he wears for compensation to light, so he can tell the weather a bit more accurate kind of thing.

Oh, hehe. You just want a barometer (period), and you happen to want to carry it in your goggles. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I dig.

So, no problem. There's the Atmosphere Sensor (Capacity 1), which fits in an RFID or Micro-sized Sensor Package. RFIDs are limited to rating 1, so you'll probably want the latter; "microsensors are the size of a coin or smaller". So, glue the coin to your goggles (or basically anywhere else). Done! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Also, albino outdoorsman? I guess that's like a boy named Sue, makes you work even harder. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Get a barometer app on your comlink and have it feed the data to the image link in the goggles?

Get a barometer package with digital output, put the sensor package in your backpack / on your suit, and have the output on your image link?

Yeah, what you really need on those gogs is an Image Link. Any sensor display you need can get patched right through. If you want the goggles to be your only wearable tech, sure, mount it right on there, but Atmosphere, Radar, even Olfactory could be useful. Gieger counter if you're near polluted/irradiated areas.

You could get the barometric sensor, the atmospheric sensor and the radar sensor implanted in a hand-held sensor package that's shaped like a torc [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torc ] so you can wear it. Druids wore them so it would add to the image too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Nope. Not enough capacity. (That's 4, even if you meant UWB Radar [2], not Radar [5].)

However, you can make it work: you don't need the Baro sensor. It's for altitude or water depth. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) So, UWB Radar [2] + Atmos [1] = Handheld Package [3].

Remember also that a standard commlink already has a camera, microphone, image/text scanner, RFID tag reader, and GPS sensors built in.

iPhone. The GPS is not 'real' satellite GPS, of course.

True, it uses the positions of the local wireless nodes rather than satellites, but it should be sufficient for most uses.

It won't work out in the deep wilderness, naturally.
