A holographic, single-unit, augmented sight has a housing containing a see-through holographic eyepiece; at least one of a visible light digital camera and an LWIR digital camera; a display to display an image from the camera(s); a shutter presenting the display; a red dot fiber-coupled LED reticle assembly using a spherical ball configuration sandwiched between two matching seats which are compressed together to contain the spherical ball configuration optical position; and a lever attached to the spherical ball configuration to rotate the ball by moving the lever up/down, left/right to adjust windage and elevation; a lower coupling prism presenting the reticle of the reticle assembly.

The technology relates to a long-range optical device for a firearm with an objective and an eyepiece, through which an observation beam path is formed for aiming at a target, the long-range optical device further comprising an opto-electronic display device, wherein the display device comprises an LCoS display for displaying variable data or a target mark, wherein a display beam path of the display device runs at least partly in the observation beam path for displaying the remote object.

An optical device includes an objective module, a prism module and an ocular module. The prism module includes a first prism, a second prism, a third prism and a first coating. The prism module is disposed between the objective module and the ocular module. A first light beam emitted by an object sequentially passes through the objective module, the prism module and the ocular module. Central axes of the objective module and the ocular module are in parallel without overlapping.

A compact sight device has a housing with a viewing and a target end. A light source projects a light beam along a path. A holographic optical element (HOE) is disposed in the path of the light beam such that the HOE is illuminated by the light beam at an incidence angle defined with respect to a line perpendicular to the surface of the HOE. The HOE reconstructs an object beam with an image of a reticle, the object beam having an object beam angle measured with respect to the line perpendicular to the surface of the HOE. The incidence angle and the object beam angle are substantially equal. The HOE further reflects a portion of the light beam at a reflection angle substantially equal to the object beam angle such that a user viewing the object beam will also see a reflected image of the light source.

Provided is a dot sighting device with large caliber for binocular vision in which sighting can be performed rapidly and accurately by minimizing parallax. The dot sighting device is attached to and detached from a mount for a heavy machine gun. In addition, by using the dot sighting device with large caliber, a user can rapidly and accurately sight and fire a target by taking into consideration types and characteristics of the target and a distance to the target.

Techniques are disclosed for enabling a wind-sensing optical scope to communicate with external components to provide for a ballistic solution. Techniques may further incorporate cost saving features such as the utilization of a photo diode and/or other features. The wind-sensing optical scope may include various sensors to collect data for the ballistic solution, and/or data from external sensors may be used. Techniques may further incorporate range finding in the wind-sensing optical scope, depending on desired functionality.

An optical projection system (12) for a weapon system aiming scope (10) having at least objective and ocular lenses (24, 26) defining an optical path through which a target image (30) is observed. The projection system (12) includes a primary beamsplitter (62) positioned in the optical path, a secondary beamsplitter (64) positioned adjacent the primary beamsplitter (62) and off the optical path, a micro-display (60) that provides a data image (38, 88) containing targeting information (100, 101, 102, 104, 106, 108, 110, 112), and an illumination source (52). The illumination source (52) generates light directed through the secondary beamsplitter (64) to illuminate and reflect off the micro-display (60) so as to define a reflected data image (88), and the secondary beamsplitter (64) directs the reflected data image (88) into the primary beamsplitter (62). The primary beamsplitter (62) combines the data image (88) with an optical target image (30) in the optical path so as to convey targeting information (100, 101, 102, 104, 106, 108, 110, 1112) to a shooter or spotter viewing the optical target image (30).

A holographic sporting/combat optic may be mounted to weapon. The sporting/combat optic includes a holographic optical element that projects a composite reticle image having at least two reticle elements. The first reticle element projects into the optical viewing window in response to light having a first wavelength; whereas, the second reticle element projects into the optical viewing window in response to light having a second wavelength which differs from the first wavelength. By selectively turning on and off different light sources, the reticle elements can be selectively projected into the optical viewing window of the sporting/combat optic.

The disclosure relates to a viewing optic. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a viewing optic having an integrated display system. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a viewing optic having an integrated display system for generating images that are projected into the first focal plane of an optical system.
