Alter Eyes

Alter eyes help with strategic operations (Drone control, conference, sleep, mapping using a boomer). Soldiers with Alter eyes have an altered sense of smell, hearing and vision as well. Soldiers see the enemy as pale humanoids with sharp teeth, black eyes and no apparent capacity for language. The implants are used to dehumanize the enemy, allowing soldiers to kill without remorse as well as improving efficiency in other ways. The enemies seen by the soldiers are in fact victims of a campaign against those believed to be genetically inferior.
Alter eyes are used for an Empire Wide eugenics program to "purify the bloodlines" of Dalmeran.
Implanted soldiers experience dreams intercut with images of blood, soldiers are fed these sexual fantasies as rewards for kills, or for those suffering from PTSD, commands into a computer to receive "a good night" exist as well. Sometimes the interface glitches during training regimens, and soldiers see past the illusion of the implant. Officers use the implant to blind reluctant soldiers and then play the actual footage of the brutal murders. They threaten to incarcerate soldiers and loop the footage, unless they agree to have their recent memory erased.
Protestors used video evidence to show that soldiers knowingly consented to the memory and sense altering effects of the Alter eyes procedure, rebuking their future claims of innocence. They developed the Alter eyes saboteur, A device with a green light at the tip, an optical transmitter which infects implants with a virus. The virus lets the soldiers see what they are actually doing, leading to rebellions within the army.
Alter eyes are forbidden from military use, but protests were hardly the cause of this token decision. Alter eyes are but are still widely used by Imperial eugenics testers, and not the army as there are far fewer people candidates for genetic elimination nowadays.
