From Meprolight
Meprolight’s design engineers, responding to input from MEPRO Foresight owners, created an app that allows you to select specific data to be visible. Some owners liked having all features on full display— internal compass, level/cant indicator, and battery strength monitor—while others only wanted the reticle visible unless the shot required access to more data. The digitally advanced optic is the first augmented reality red dot sight, providing critical real-time data to the user’s FOV that allows you to customize the visual data. The reticle and data are projected onto the MEPRO Foresight’s glass much like the heads up display a fighter pilot sees when he zeroes in on a target. Simply stated, personalize the projected data to fit your needs. The integrated light sensor automatically determines reticle and data brightness.
The state-of-the-art MEPRO Foresight includes the Meprolight App which is unique in that its app-based-smart-phone Bluetooth connectivity allows the shooter to select and store five reticles from a large database of reticles. Scroll through the menu and select the reticle that fits your need. Reticle options include 1 MOA dot and 1 MOA dot with circle. In addition to five reticles, the Meprolight App allows you to store the ballistic data from 10 different weapons—rifles or shotguns—and load it to the sight as needed. The built-in Picatinny rail attachment allows you to move the optic from one gun to another. More importantly, it gives you confidence knowing you have already zeroed that weapon and stored the ballistic data, which is vital, when changing between guns, calibers, using sub-sonic ammo or a suppressed gun .
The Foresight, first of its kind, provides greater technical advantages by allowing the user to utilize the Meprolight App that is included as well as free access to download and test the Double Shot™ —Automatic Digital Zeroing —App allowing the shooter to zero the weapon without touching the optic, solving the concern of experienced shooters and new shooters uncertain of zeroing their gun. The user starts by shooting a multi-shot group and uploading a photo of the grouping to the app. The system analyzes your mean point of impact and zeroes the weapon automatically.
More and more companies are going wireless on their weaponlight and scope solutions, too. Here’s my look at the trend.
Real time projected data—providing the shooter with critical ballistic data —as little or as much displayed to an image-sharp, wide viewing window, the MEPRO Foresight increases your shooting capabilities. Like your smart phone, it is powered by a rechargeable USB-C battery using a regular USB-C type connector (charging cable included).
