Isn't that a diagram of a mechanical eye aug, though? Like Anna's or Gunther's?

We were so off topic that only now I know why you posted that image and not a hi-res remade version of it ;)

I don't know how the hell we're going to redo any of the medical posters, or any of the art ones. :?

It always bugged me that despite the in-game AUG description "Bioluminescent cells within the retina provide coherent illumination of the agent's field of view" kinda implying that JC's eyes were the direct source of the light, when you look into a mirror and turn the aug on nothing actually happens to his appearance.

What I suggest is an alternate animation for JC so when the aug is turned on, his eyes glow kinda electric-blue. Would also be good if you could make his eyes an actual light source too, so that his immediate vicinity is lit up, not just the patch the light beam happens to fall on. Though this second point is a bit of a stretch and maybe something more appropriate for Shifter.

What do you guys think? I cant imagine it would be massively difficult to implement, and would really make JC look cool when the flash aug is on!
Ey, sick idea!
