specifically, what type of sensory gear is needed for a character to use empathy software?
"Empathy software is designed for use with standard video/trideo cameras... Empathy software can be discreetly used in real time during negotiations or social interactions." p. 60 AR
"Microsensors are the size of a coin or smaller and are used on micro-drones or often disguised as other items." p.333 SR4A

I say just go simple and use cyber-eyes.

yes, a simple solution.
any non-augment suggestions?

I thought about the contact lens and glasses, but I didn't want to mention them before for fear of getting flamed by some on the boards.

i think i found it, "camera (trideo) (rating 1)" counts as micro under it's description. disguise it as a button in your suit jacket perhaps?
now, is only the camera needed or some other vision enhancement as well? i know image link is required for AR/trideo, but in the camera itself?
also, software is stored on your PAN, correct?

nevermind.

you can attach a camera as a plug-in to glasses, or even contacts. Just as you would add a vision enhancement.
Just imagine how small those cameras were in spy kids, if any of you are young or old enough to remember that.
-
does the camera's rating limit the software rating? or is the software limited by your commlink?
-
Simrig lets you use your natural senses as sensors, so that would work.
-
no, your commlink is the only gear that restricts the empathy software, you just need a display device and a capture device, and the hardware and OS to run it.
