Does GURPS have a model(outside of a bonus to skill) to account for the ability of an automatic system to do real-time processing of the sensor data to provide either an enhancement over-lay(like how many computer games will highlight items and enemies), or other augmented-reality type processing that could allow a user(biological or electronic) to spot or identify things that they may not have been able to see regardless of skill?
