Picture that plus a range finder plus a computer control system for smart rounds.
Point at the target, choose whether you want the round to explode exactly at that distance or a set distance in front or behind.
If a gunman is behind a barricade, you range the baracade, set detonation 2 meters further away and then fire above the barricade fragging anything behind it. You can do the same thing with a window.

See a fox hole, detonate a frag right above it.
