External module and method for electronic compensation of parallax errors in direct-view rifle scopes
An example rifle includes a rifle scope including a front optics and back optics for imaging a remote object. A parallax compensating device is coupled to the rifle scope. The parallax compensating device determines a zero-parallax setting distance to compensate parallax errors associated with imaging a remote object. The parallax compensating device removes, using the zero-parallax setting distance, the parallax errors dynamically in real time even if a user's head or eyes are misaligned and temperature at the rifle scope or surrounding environment.
Data redundancy and hardware tracking system for gun-mounted recording device
A recording device for mounting on a gun. The recording device includes a recording unit that houses a recording module and a removable power source unit detachably coupled to the recording unit. The removable power source unit houses a battery and memory, wherein the battery is configured for providing power to the recording device while attached thereto and the memory stores recording data from the recording module. The memory of the removable power source unit includes data collected from the recording device and includes a hardware ID or ID code associated with a user of the recording device.
ELECTRONIC REDUCTION OF PARALLAX ERRORS IN DIRECT-VIEW RIFLE SCOPES WITHOUT RANGING
An example rifle scope includes a plurality of light emitting devices for sending illuminations directed to a distal end of the rifle scope. A plurality of optical detectors detects reflected light received from the distal end of the rifle scope. Each of the optical detectors produces data regarding the reflected light each optical detector observed. A processor device receives the data on the reflected light from the optical detectors and adjusting a position of a field lens so an eyepoint projected in a target space of the rifle scope coincides with an optical axis of the rifle scope removing parallax errors due to misalignment.
Method and system for aligning a point of aim with a point of impact for a projectile device
Methods and systems for aligning a point of aim with a point of impact for a projectile device are disclosed. Using a superposition device coupled to the projectile device, at least one optical reference point is superposed within a first target area with at least one beam from the superposition device. A position of at least one of the optical reference points is noted. A projectile is expelled from the projectile device at a second target area, while the position of the at least one optical reference point is maintained, to create the point of impact. The point of aim for the projectile device is adjusted to align with the point of impact while the position of the at least one optical reference point is maintained.

Fire-control system
A fire-control system including a housing, a light channel, a light source, and a processor. Through the light channel, a user may directly observe a target and receive visually displayed information simultaneously. The light channel includes partially reflective optics and allows for visualization of a reticle to the user via the partially reflective optics. A measure of the distance to the target is also received by the system. The processor is for determining the adequate position of the reticle, based on the distance to the target, and for controlling the light source to emit light so that the reticle is visualized at the adequate position. The light source is an array capable of selectively emitting light in well defined locations on its surface.
APPARATUS FOR AN ADAPTIVE FEEDBACK SYSTEM FOR ENHANCING BALLISTIC ACCURACY
The present variations disclose an apparatus or system configured to provide adaptive feedback for increasing ballistic accuracy in combat and high-precision situations. The apparatus utilizes machine learning algorithms to analyze and predict the movement of a shooter's eyes and hands when firing a weapon while continually monitoring the movements of the firearm to improve accuracy. The apparatus also utilizes a haptic, visual, and auditory feedback mechanism that provides real-time guidance and feedback on projected shot landing to enhance situational awareness and accuracy in high-stress environments. The apparatus may also include an automatic firing mechanism that enables the system to take over firing when appropriate via a human-guided mechanism to further enhance safety and effectiveness.
Video camera gun barrel mounting system
A shock absorbing mount on a gun using a camera system for training a shooter. The mount includes a mounting bracket with an upper portion having an opening defined therein for firmly mechanically attaching to at least one barrel of a gun and a lower portion for firm mechanically attaching to a tube assembly. The tube assembly is adapted to slidably mount carriage assembly of a camera therein. The tube assembly includes a first end with a first captive cap holding a lens window directed toward a gun front sight when mounted on the gun, the first end including a load transfer ring positioned between the first captive cap and a carriage assembly body of the camera. A programming system is also disclosed to translate a relative position of the generated reticule overlay relative to a generated graticule overlay using the offset previously stored.
