For easy viewing, it is generally set to 45°; the horizontal level 8 and the vertical level 10 are simulated with OLED display screens, and the OLED display screens are installed at a 45° tilt toward the personnel.

[0036] It should be noted that:

[0037] The sight housing 1 simulates the appearance of a real sight, and the structure is simplified for easy manufacturing; a collection control board is installed inside the sight housing 1 for collecting encoder data in the longitudinal tilt adjustment and correction mechanism 2, the lateral tilt adjustment and correction mechanism 3, the shooting angle setting component 4 and the single repair screw assembly 5;

An absolute encoder 407 is fixed on the side of the bracket 403 away from the hand wheel 404, and the input end of the absolute encoder 407 is fixed to the corresponding end of the rotating shaft 403 through a coupling 406.

[0044] like Figure 5As shown, similar to the structure of the shooting angle setting component 4, the single repair screw component 5 includes a bearing seat 3 501 fixed to the sight housing 1, a bracket 3 503 is fixed to one side of the bearing seat 3 501, a rotating shaft 3 503 is rotatably provided in the bearing seat 3 501, a handwheel 3 504 is coaxially fixed to one end of the rotating shaft 3 503, a damper 3 505 and an absolute encoder 3 507 are installed on the bracket 3 503, the rotating shaft 3 503 and the damper 3 505 are meshed and driven by a gear set, and the end of the rotating shaft 3 503 is fixedly connected to the input end of the absolute encoder 3 507 by a coupling 3 506.
