  • Auto-focus night vision device
    Patent number: 12216265
    Abstract: A night vision device has an objective lens mounted on a housing, and arranged for receiving light from ambient into the housing. An image intensifier and an eyepiece lens are also mounted on the housing. An adjustable iris defining an iris opening is mounted on the housing on an end of the housing generally opposite to where the objective lens is mounted. A sensor for detecting light intensity is connected to the housing and located toward the second end of the housing. The sensor controls the size of an area of the iris opening in response to the light intensity detected for keeping the area of the iris small so as to maintain a depth of field of the night vision device.
