Surly there is a lenses that flips images upside down. Have we tried just training people to deal with upside down surly it doesnt take too long for the brain to adapt.

It doesn't. I recall an experiment a few decades ago where they turned the world upside down. Didn't take participants long to "normalise" the image.

When they removed the experiment, took even shorter to flip back.

I seem to recall it being done in a train carriage, as art, but I'm not sure.

Huh guess a bit more training and u can totally remove the fibre optic flipping which if i recall correctly is the most expensive part.

The soldiers just have to wear the goggles all the time, or they'll see upside down for several minutes.

Surly u can adapt to the change given enough practice.
