摘要:A microcontroller operated optical device for determining the distance toobjects of known or estimable size which is programmed to control a movable indicatorrelative to a stationary indicator for spanning a dimension of an image of an object. Thedistance spanned by the movable indicator is inversely proportional to the distance ofthe object from the apparatus and the microcontroller subsequently interprets the spanin terms of the distance to the object and displays the resultant distance for viewing byan operator. This device is usable in surveying instruments, riflescopes, telescopes,binoculars, and the like, and is controllable by an operator who selectively activates it by,and with, known data.
In riflescope embodiments the microcontroller is further programmed with ballisticdata and, subsequent to rangefinding, calculates a holdover factor to compensate fordeviations in the flight path of the bullet to be fired by the firearm to which the device isattached from the line of sight through the apparatus and selectively activates themovable indicator to move it to a second position to provide an accurate aimingreference compensatory of the deviations in the flight path.
