    摘要: An enhanced vision system includes a first optic subsystem and a transparent photodetector subsystem disposed within a common housing. The first optic subsystem may include passive devices such as simple or compound lenses, active devices such as low-light enhancing image intensifiers, or a combination of passive and active devices. The transparent photodetector subsystem receives the visible image exiting the first optic subsystem and converts a portion of the electromagnetic energy in the visible image to a signal communicated to image analysis circuitry. On a real-time or near real-time basis, the image analysis circuitry detects and identifies structures, objects, and/or individuals in the visible image. The image analysis circuitry provides an output that includes information regarding the structure, objects, and individuals to the system user contemporaneous with the system user viewing the visible image.

    摘要: A weapon system has an optical sight mounted to a weapon and a frame with a sight window that is configured to superimpose a reticle that is visible through the sight window in a first focal plane. An optoelectronic device is mounted to the weapon and includes an imager with a sensor array and a display device. An image processor is configured to receive image data captured by the sensor array and process the image data to generate a subset image that is received from a select region of the sensor array. The select region of the sensor array defines a second focal plane. A controller is configured to receive an input from an operator, and in response to the input, to select the select region of the sensor array for aligning the second focal plane with the first focal plane.

    摘要: Methods and systems are disclosed for a modular weapon sight assembly. A weapon sight may include a base, an optical bench, an adjuster assembly, and/or a housing. The base may be configured to be releasably secured to a weapon. The optical bench may include a plurality of optical elements attached to a unitary component carrier. A relative position of the plurality of optical elements may define an optical path of the weapon sight. The base, the optical bench, the adjuster assembly, and the housing may be configured as separate modules. For example, the optical path of the optical bench may remain constant during adjustment and/or replacement of the base, the adjuster assembly, and/or the housing. A change in position of the base, the adjuster assembly, and/or the housing may not alter the relative position of the plurality of optical elements with respect to one another.

    摘要: An aiming device for a firearm comprising a housing and a near infrared illuminator. The near infrared illuminator is positioned in the housing and is configured to output near infrared light with adjustable beam divergence to provide a field of illumination that is adjustable. The near infrared illuminator includes a divergence adjustment input positioned on an upper side of the housing that is movable by a user to adjust the beam divergence.

    摘要: Methods and systems are disclosed for a weapon sight with a tapered housing. The housing may be configured to enclose an optical bench and/or a portion of an adjuster assembly within the weapon sight. The housing may include an outer shell, a first window, and a second window. The first window may define a first area. The second window may define a second area. The second area may be greater than the first area, for example, such that the outer shell is tapered outward from the first opening to the second opening. The outer shell may define a first wall and a second wall that extend between the first opening and the second opening on opposed sides of an optical path of the weapon sight. The first wall and the second wall may be slanted outward from the first window to the second window.
