Abstract: A weapon-mounted Fire Control System (FCS) for a handheld weapon includes an imaging sensor and a processing system configured to operate in two modes. In a first mode, for handheld operation of the weapon, the processing system tracks a target, determines an aim-region with which the weapon should be aligned for firing in order to strike the target, and generates an output to facilitate accurate firing of the weapon towards the aim region. The output may indicate the aim region on a display, and/or may control a firing control mechanism. In a second mode, when the weapon is on an adjustable weapon support, the processor tracks a target, determines an aim-region, and generates output signals for controlling operation of at least one actuator of the adjustable weapon support in order to align the weapon with the aim region.

Abstract: A foldable support for aiming an aimable device, including: (a) a coupling arrangement adapted to releasably couple the aimable device thereto; (b) a foldable leg mechanically coupled to the coupling arrangement; (c) two linear actuators adapted to be angularly spaced apart, the two linear actuators adjustably coupled to the coupling arrangement; and (d) a collapsible reinforcement frame selectively providing rigid interconnection between bases of each of the two linear actuators and the foldable leg, and collapsible to provide a compact portable form of the support.

Abstract: A laser system operationally coupled to an aimable device having a Line of Sight (LOS), and adapted for providing a graphic laser display, including: at least one laser source adapted to generate: a first laser output, displaying a fixed pattern at a hit point having a fixed orientation relative to an axis of the LOS of the aimable device, and a second laser output, forming the graphic laser display; a motion control mechanism adapted to direct at least the second laser output; a tracking system configured to track at least one target; and a processing unit, configured to receive tracking data relating to a location of the at least one target relative to the LOS of the aimable device and instruct the motion control mechanism to direct the second laser output to display the graphic laser display on the at least one target.

Abstract: A firearm aiming system comprising an imaging system comprising an imaging sensor and an image processor; and a user display, wherein the imaging system is adapted to detect a potential target on the user display based on target features. In some embodiments the system includes a firing processor with an epsilon logic module for calculating a target aim-point/area used by the firing processor to make a firing decision.

Abstract: An aiming system of an aimable device includes a user display, an imaging system, user controls, a tracker, and a range finder such as a LRF. The imaging system displays, on the user display, an indicator of the direction in which the device points. The user uses the user controls to lock on a target towards which the device points according to the indicator. Then the tracker tracks the target, and the range finder measures the range to the tracked target. The tracker aims the range finder at the target, or alternatively scans the target and its background, one-dimensionally or two-dimensionally.
