A method comprising:
- displaying, to a shooter of a rifle and with a wearable electronic device (WED) worn on a head of the shooter, a point of aim that is a visual indication showing a location where the rifle is aimed on a target;
- and
- moving, by the WED, the point of aim being displayed to the shooter with the WED to compensate for bore temperature of the rifle so a bullet fired from the rifle hits the target at the location where the rifle is aimed on the target.
A method comprising:
- displaying, to a shooter with a rifle and with a display of a wearable electronic device (WED) worn on a head of the shooter, a point of aim that is a visual indication showing a location where the rifle is aimed on a target;
- and
- moving, by the WED, the point of aim being displayed to the shooter with the display of the WED to compensate for effects of jitter of the shooter so a bullet fired from the rifle by the shooter hits the target at the location where the rifle is aimed on the target.
A method comprising:
- displaying, to a shooter with a rifle and with a wearable electronic device (WED) worn on a head of the shooter, a point of aim that is a visual indication showing a location where the rifle is aimed on a target;
- and
- moving, by the WED, the point of aim being displayed to the shooter with the WED to compensate for bullets fired from the rifle that missed locations where the rifle was previously fired so a bullet fired from the rifle by the shooter hits the target at the location where the rifle is aimed on the target, wherein movement of the point of aim is based on a pattern of the bullets that previously missed the locations.
