  • Patent number: 7177080
    Abstract: A viewing arrangement includes an image generator having a single, two-sided display screen having a front and a back side which display a front image and a back image, respectively, of a translucent or transparent image generated by the image generator; two eyepieces suitable for viewing the front and back images via respective eyes of a person using the arrangement; and an optical imaging system which images and transmits the front image to one eye of the person using the arrangement via the first eyepiece, and the back image to another eye of the person using the arrangement via the second eyepiece. A corresponding method includes generating an image; processing the image with an optical imaging system into front and back images; displaying the front and back images on a two-sided display; and transmitting the front and back images to first and second eyepieces.

  • Patent number: 4383741
    Abstract: The invention relates to a binocular night telescope of the type which comprises a large aperture objective (1), a light amplifier tube (2) for amplifying the image projected by said large aperture objective and a viewing microscope which comprises telescope objectives (9, 10) and oculars (11, 12) as well as a collimating objective (6) for focusing the amplified image at infinity for an observer. The viewing microscope also comprises prisms or mirrors for erecting the image vertically as well as in side. At least a part of the prisms (7, 8) for erecting the image in side are axially displaced so that they are located at the side of, above or below the light amplifier tube (2) depending on the orientation of the microscope. This means that the entire instrument is shorter and the center of gravity is moved forwards.
