SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY TARGETING A WEAPON

摘要

A method and system for automatically calculating a trajectory of a projectile launched from a weapon includes receiving environmental conditions and determining a distance to a potential target. Determining the distance to the potential target may include calculating distance via optics of the weapon in conjunction with a self correcting reticle module or a video target tracking module. Alternatively, the distance to the potential target may be determined using a laser range finder. A point of impact for the projectile on the potential target may automatically be calculated based on the distance and environmental conditions. A graphical indicator may then be projected on a display device which corresponds to the potential target and indicates the point of impact for the projectile on the potential target. The video target tracking or self correcting reticle module moves the projectile impact point (crosshairs) as the weapon is translated in space by the marksmen.
