A target adjustment apparatus may be provided. The target adjustment apparatus may include an optical targeting device having a first zero. The target adjustment apparatus may further include an optical adjustment lens removably disposed in a line of sight between a target and the optical targeting device. The optical adjustment lens may shift a target image before it reaches the optical targeting device, creating a second zero.

A transparent thin film electroluminescent display device includes a first transparent thin film electroluminescent display having a substrate and a first active layer capable of emitting a spectrum of light in a wavelength of visible light. The transparent thin film electroluminescent display device further includes a second transparent thin film electroluminescent display having a substrate and a second active layer, the first and second transparent thin film electroluminescent displays being arranged in a superposed manner such that the first and second active layers are spaced apart from each other for forming the transparent thin film electroluminescent display device with a superposed structure.

Fiducial patterns that produce 2D Barker code-like diffraction patterns at a camera sensor are etched or otherwise provided on a cover glass in front of a camera. 2D Barker code kernels, when cross-correlated with the diffraction patterns captured in images by the camera, provide sharp cross-correlation peaks. Misalignment of the cover glass with respect to the camera can be derived by detecting shifts in the location of the detected peaks with respect to calibrated locations. Devices that include multiple cameras behind a cover glass with one or more fiducials on the cover glass in front of each camera are also described. The diffraction patterns caused by the fiducials at the various cameras may be analyzed to detect movement or distortion of the cover glass in multiple degrees of freedom.

The invention relates to a reticle (1) for a telescopic sight (100), having a non-linear size value scale (10) and further special scales and sighting aids (30) which serve in each case for the determination of a distance to a target object or of the size thereof in order that, ultimately, a shot can be fired precisely at the target object. The invention also relates to the method for determining the distance to the target object (ZO) using the non-linear size value scale, and to telescopic sights and firearms having the reticle according to the invention.

A support facility for a binocular has a base, the base including a tripod connection facility, a flexible strap having a first strap end connected to the base, and an opposed second strap end, a tensioner connected to the base and to the second strap end, the flexible strap, the base, and the tensioner defining an opening configured to receive a first barrel of the binocular, and the flexible strap including a length adjustment facility adjustable over a range of length adjustment positions. The length adjustment facility may be configured to provide a selected strap length based on the diameter of the first barrel. The tensioner may be configured to operate between a released position in which the length adjustment facility is removable from or movable along the flexible strap and an engaged position in which the support facility is engaged to the first barrel.

An image processing apparatus includes an information acquisition unit configured to acquire first optical information outside an image circle of an imaging optical system, and a processing unit configured to perform sharpening processing, based on the first optical information, for an input image generated by imaging using the imaging optical system. The first optical information is optical information generated based on second optical information within the image circle of the imaging optical system.

The invention relates to a long-range optical device, in particular a telescopic sight 1, with at least one objective lens 2 and at least one eyepiece 3 and with an adjustable reticle 6 arranged between the objective lens 2 and the eyepiece, wherein the reticle 6 is coupled to a manually operable fast reticle adjustment, wherein a display device 14 is arranged in the field of view of the long-range optical device 1, through which a distance value set by a setting device 4, 15 of the fast reticle adjustment can be read when using the long-range optical device 1.
