Abstract
A Next Generation Machinegun Sight (NexGen MGS) with a modular and universal design is discussed, whereby the NexGen MGS includes a lens body in a detachable manner; a display module disposed on a main body; a built in or standalone LRF connected into a ballistic computer to provide a disturbed reticle; a control switch or a remote control for fast and safe system operation without sacrificing combat grip; and multiple mounting rails disposed on the main body to accommodate the LRF, magnifiers, cameras and other equipment. The NexGen MGS is a reflex sight with a disturbed reticle that provides a range-adjusted aimpoint based on ballistics equations embedded within the MGS using a latest high resolution and sunlight readable display and laser range technologies.
Claims23
A NexGen Machine Gun Sight (NexGen MGS) comprising:
- a lens body provided in a detachable manner, the lens body having a front side and a back side;
- a display module disposed outside of the lens body at a distance from the back side of the lens body and configured to generate and project a user selected reticle directly on a back surface at the back side of the lens body;
- a main body to hold at least the lens body and the display module;
- a ballistic computer to calculate a ballistic drop of ammunition;
- and
- a laser range finder (LRF) to acquire a distance to a target and to feed the distance into the ballistic computer,
- wherein the display module includes a body, a display positioned within the body, and at least one hole extending through the body and used to fix the body of the display module to the main body, and
- wherein the body of the display module protrudes above an upper surface of the main body when fixed to the main body.
A NexGen Machine Gun Sight (NexGen MGS) comprising:
- a lens body provided in a detachable manner, the lens body having a front side and a back side;
- a ballistic computer to calculate and generate a disturbed reticle;
- a display module disposed outside of the lens body at a distance from the back side of the lens body and configured to receive information from the ballistic computer to project a range-adjusted aiming point in the form of the disturbed reticle directly on a back surface at the back side of the lens body and based on a ballistic equation or a range solution;
- and
- a main body to hold at least the lens body and the display module,
- wherein the ballistic computer generates range or target related information as the information,
- wherein the display module includes a body, a display positioned within the body, and at least one hole extending through the body and used to fix the body of the display module to the main body, and
- wherein the body of the display module protrudes above an upper surface of the main body when fixed to the main body.
