US 2026/0276970 A1 · Film Through Scope Camera Mount System

Abstract

Systems and methods are described which provide a film through scope camera mount including a housing that includes a beam splitter, first and second mirrors, and a sensor. The camera mount system may receive an input optical signal from a first direction; split the input optical signal using the beam splitter such that a first portion of the input optical signal may be communicated out of the camera mount system in a second direction and a second portion of the input optical signal may be reflected lateral to the first direction; reflect the reflected signal vertically using the first mirror; reflect the vertically reflected signal in a second lateral direction using the second mirror; and receive the signal reflected by the second mirror in the sensor, which may comprise a visible light sensor and/or an infrared sensor.

Dependent claims

An optical sight, comprising:

a scope housing;
an objective lens system supported by the scope housing and configured to receive light forming an image along an optical path of the optical sight;
a lens reversal system supported by the scope housing and positioned along the optical path;
an eyepiece supported by the scope housing and positioned along the optical path after the lens reversal system;
a beam splitter disposed within the scope housing along the optical path and configured to split the light into a first portion that is transmitted along the optical path to the eyepiece and a second portion that is reflected away from the optical path;
and
an image sensor disposed within the scope housing and positioned to receive the second portion from the beam splitter, wherein the eyepiece is configured to output the first portion as an optical image directly viewable by an eye of a user, and wherein the image sensor is configured to capture the image from the second portion.
