Camera sight device for a weapon
A camera system having a sight device, with a housing configurable for securing about a weapon, the camera connects with a smart phone device for displaying an image from the sight device for accurately targeting with a weapon.
Automatic Weapon Subsystem with Sensing, Tracking, Aim Adjustment Control, and Linked External Weapons Subsystems for Best Shot
A human transported weapon system is comprised of a targeting subsystem; a sensing subsystem; trigger activation logic; a decision subsystem; and, an aim adjustment controller responsive to the decision subsystem. The targeting subsystem has a field of view in a target area, identifying at least one said target in the field of view as a selected target. The sensing subsystem, senses and tracks location of the selected target through environment in the target area. The trigger activation logic initiates firing of the munitions at a firing time. The decision subsystem, determines where the selected target is located at the firing time, responsive to the sensing subsystem. The aim adjustment controller, adjusts aim of the munition from the human transported weapon, so that the munition will hit the selected target when fired at the firing time, responsive to the decision subsystem. In one embodiment, the human transported weapon system is linked to communicate with at least one external weapon subsystem, and, the decision subsystem determines which one of the human transported weapon and the external weapon subsystem has a best shot relative to each other.
Human Transported Weapon System and Linked External Weapons Subsystem
A human transported weapon system is comprised of an automated targeting subsystem, a sensing subsystem, a decision subsystem, and, a firing subsystem. The automated targeting subsystem identifies and provides for selection of a selected target in a field of view of a target area of the human transported weapon system. The sensing subsystem tracks location of the selected target. The decision subsystem locates where the selected target is at a firing time, responsive to the sensing subsystem. The firing subsystem fires a munition at the firing time towards the selected target responsive to the decision subsystem. In one embodiment, the human transported weapon system is linked to communicate with at least one external weapon subsystem having separate munitions and ability for firing said separate munitions. The decision subsystem determines which one of the human transported weapon system and the external weapon subsystem has a best shot to strike the selected target if fired, and provides for firing of the munition from whichever one of the human transported weapon system and the external weapons subsystem has the best shot to strike the selected target if fired.
Selectable Offset Image Wedge
The invention discloses a selectable offset image wedge assembly and various methods for making and for use with any optical system having a circular lens and an objective, comprising a housing with a rear-facing end that mounts onto the objective and a forward-facing end with a circular wedge lens mounted therein that is coaxially aligned with the circular lens of the optical system, wherein, the wedge is adjustable to any predetermined clocking position after detachment from the optical system, allowing quick and repeated reattachment to the optical system to an approximately exact vertical orientation of a first image produced by the wedge lens and a second image produced by the circular lens of the optical system.

MULTI-USE LASER RANGEFINDER
Provided is a multi-use laser rangefinder usable in either of hand-held and weapon-mounted modes. It includes a compact laser rangefinder (LRF) removably mountable to a weapon system and an optical aiming unit separate from a weapon system optical sighting device. The compact optical aiming unit has a point of aim viewable therethrough and is removably attachable to the rangefinder. The LRF has a point of aim adjustable to a point of aim of the weapon system when mounted and to the point of aim of the optical aiming unit when LRF is demounted and the optical aiming unit is attached to the LRF.
