  • Publication number: 20220264058
    Abstract: A device to capture data and video through a weapon's iron sight during live fire, wherein the iron sight has a rear aperture assembly and is able to adjust iron sight elevation. The device includes a beam splitter assembly, a camera, and camera body with a printed circuit board assembly with sensors and a controller, image sensor, device controller and an adjustment arm. The adjustment arm is mountable on the side of the iron sight assembly such that the camera body can be adjusted to the weapon line of sight in a horizontal/windage direction. The beamsplitter assembly splits the light and images to the image sensor and to the shooter's eye without disrupting the shooter's view of a target. The image sensor captures video of the image sent from the beamsplitter assembly. The device controller collects data from all the sensors and sends the data and video to a computer.
