An optical sighting device includes an eyepiece positioned to receive optical radiation along an optical axis to produce a real exit pupil located remote from the eyepiece. The real exit pupil is positioned at an eye relief distance from the eyepiece along the optical axis. A digital signal processor determines an axial distance from the eyepiece to an eye positioned proximate the real exit pupil along the optical axis. An aperture stop is centered along the optical axis to direct the optical radiation in a direction of the eyepiece. The eye relief distance is based at least in part on a position of the aperture stop along the optical axis. The optical sighting device further includes an eye relief actuator to translate the aperture stop along the optical axis to null a spatial offset between the eye relief distance and the axial distance to the eye.

OVERLAYING AUGMENTED REALITY (AR) CONTENT WITHIN AN AR HEADSET COUPLED TO A MAGNIFYING LOUPE

A computer-implemented method for displaying augmented reality (AR) content within an AR device coupled to one or more loupe lenses comprising: obtaining calibration parameters defining a magnified display portion within a display of the AR device, wherein the magnified display portion corresponds to boundaries encompassing the one or more loupe lenses; receiving the AR content for display within the AR device; and rendering the AR content within the display, wherein the rendering the AR content comprises: identifying a magnified portion of the AR content to be displayed within the magnified display portion, and rendering the magnified portion of the AR content within the magnified display portion.

Alignment ring for scope

Disclosed herein are alignment features for scopes, such as alignment rings for telescopic sights. For example, a scope can includes a proximal end having an interior surface. The proximal end is that which a user aligns his or her eye in order to visualize a target. The scope may also include an alignment ring on the interior surface of the proximal end. The alignment ring assists a user in determining whether his or her eye is properly aligned with a longitudinal axis of the scope. With correct eye alignment, the alignment ring is not visible. With incorrect eye alignment, at least a portion of the alignment ring is visible, thus ensuring accurate sighting.

ALIGNMENT TOOL FOR ALIGNING HEART VALVE WITH DELIVERY SYSTEM

An alignment tool for loading a stent includes a plurality of arms each having a shaft with an engagement region moveable between a first, angled configuration relative to the shaft, and a second, straight configuration, with each engagement region having an inner surface shaped to mate with a stent holder. The alignment tool further includes a lock ring having a lumen configured to receive the plurality of arms, with the lock ring configured to slide over the arms between a first retracted position in which the engagement region of each arm is exposed and allowed to bias into the angled configuration, and a second locked position in which the lock ring extends over at least a portion of the engagement regions and compresses the engagement regions into the straight configuration. The alignment tool may also include a spring configured to bias the lock ring in the locked position.
