[0042] See Figures 1-2 In one embodiment of this utility model, a target-marking scope 100 is provided, including a body 10, and the scope 100 further includes:

[0043] Objective lens 20 is located at the front end of the main body 10, focuses the light information of the image at the front end of the aiming scope 100, and transmits the light information to the AI ​​video image processing unit 30;

[0044] AI video image processing unit 30 is disposed on the main body 10 and includes an image sensor module 31 and a video image AI processing module 32 that are electrically connected to each other; the image sensor module 31 receives light information and converts the light information into corresponding image information, and forms a video from multiple frames of image information and sends it to the video image AI processing module 32.

[0045] The video image AI processing module 32 performs target recognition on the video according to the preset target information, identifies the target from each frame of image information, and performs contour marking and / or highlight marking and / or background removal marking on the identified target in the image information to obtain marked image information, and sends the marked image information to the display screen 40.

[0046] The display screen 40 is electrically connected to the AI ​​video image processing unit 30. The display screen receives at least the marked image information sent by the video image AI processing module in the AI ​​video image processing unit, and displays an image with outline marking and / or highlight marking and / or background removal marking on the target based on the marked image information.

[0047] The eyepiece 50 is located at the rear of the main body 10 and optically magnifies the image displayed on the display screen 40.

[0048] In this embodiment, the sight 100 can outline and / or highlight and / or remove background markings on targets in the observed image, thereby enabling the shooter to clearly observe the targets. Specifically, the objective lens 20, located at the front of the main body 10, focuses the light information in front of the sight 100 onto the AI ​​video image processing unit 30. The image sensor module 31 in the AI ​​video image processing unit 30 may optionally include a CMOS image sensor. The image sensor module 31 reacts to the light information and can quickly generate corresponding image information. It then sends the video formed by multiple frames (at least two frames) of image information to the video image AI processing module 32. The video image AI processing module 32 performs target recognition on the video based on preset target information. The preset target information can be image information containing target features. For example, when the shooter's target is a wild boar that is allowed to be hunted, the preset target information can be an image of the wild boar. Of course, multiple targets can be preset. The video image AI processing module 32 performs target recognition on the video based on the image of the wild boar, and then finds the target from the image information of each frame. It performs contour marking and / or highlight marking and / or background removal marking on the target to obtain marked image information, which is then sent to the display screen 40. The display screen 40 displays the image based at least on the marked image information, so that the target in the image displayed on the display screen 40 is outline marked and / or highlighted and / or background removed. The eyepiece 50 optically magnifies the image on the display screen 40, and the highlighted target allows the user to easily and clearly observe the target in the image when viewing it through the eyepiece 50.

[0049] As an optional embodiment, the AI ​​video image processing unit 30 also includes a general video image processing module, which is electrically connected to the display screen 40.

[0050] The video image general processing module controls the image displayed on the display screen 40 to be magnified according to the received first control command; or the video image general processing module controls the image displayed on the display screen 40 to be reduced according to the received second control command; or the video image general processing module controls the target at the front of the aiming scope 100 to be illuminated according to the received third control command; or the video image general processing module records one or more images displayed on the display screen 40 to obtain a recorded image according to the received fourth control command; or the video image general processing module controls the display brightness of the display screen 40 according to the received fifth control command.

[0051] In this embodiment, the video image general processing module can perform common operations on the image, such as zooming in or out, recording the image, or controlling the supplementary lighting of the target or controlling the brightness of the display screen 40.

[0052] As an optional embodiment, the video image AI processing module 32 includes:

[0053] The NPU (Neural Network Processing Unit) performs target recognition on the video based on preset target information, identifies targets from each frame of image information, obtains the target detection results of each frame of image information in the video, and sends them to the CPU.

[0054] The CPU (Central Processing Unit) performs contour marking and / or highlight marking and / or background removal on the targets identified in each frame of image information based on the target detection results of each frame of image information to obtain marked image information.

[0055] The transmission submodule receives the marker image information sent by the CPU and sends the marker image information to the display screen 40.

[0056] In this embodiment, the NPU can achieve target recognition through a deep learning algorithm for target identification. The NPU continuously infers the image information of each frame of the video and returns the inference result. Optionally, the video image AI processing module 32 is a video image processing module that performs target recognition on the video based on the YOLOv5 algorithm and preset target information. The YOLOv5 algorithm can detect and recognize targets in the video in real time. It is a single-stage target recognition algorithm. Its principle is to solve the entire target recognition process as a regression problem. By segmenting the image into a grid and predicting the bounding box and category for each grid simultaneously, target recognition is achieved. The YOLOv5 algorithm has a fast detection speed, and after training and adjustment, it can achieve a high accuracy and a low false negative rate. It is also simple and easy to use. The target detection result obtained by the NPU includes the position information of the target in the image information. The CPU is the core of computation and control, and is the final execution unit for information processing and program execution. The CPU performs contour marking and / or highlight marking and / or background removal on the target based on the target detection results of the corresponding image information to obtain marked image information, and sends the marked image information to the display screen 40 through the transmission submodule. Thus, the target in the image displayed on the display screen 40 is marked with contour marking and / or highlight marking and / or background removal.

[0057] See Figures 1-2 As an optional embodiment, the eyepiece 50 includes a plurality of first optical lenses 51; and the sight 100 further includes:

[0058] The manual focusing mechanism 52 adjusts the distance between multiple first optical lenses 51 to allow users of the scope 100 with different myopia to observe clearly.

[0060] See Figures 1-2 As an optional embodiment, the objective lens 20 includes a plurality of second optical lenses 21; and the sight 100 further includes:

[0061] The objective lens focusing mechanism 22 adjusts the distance between multiple second optical lenses 21 to clearly focus the light information of the image onto the image sensor module 31.

[0062] In this embodiment, the objective lens 20 performs optical imaging of a distant target. The objective lens 20 is composed of multiple (e.g., 5) high-precision lenses. The objective lens focusing mechanism 22 is a mechanical focusing mechanism. By manually rotating and adjusting the objective lens focusing mechanism 22, the user can change the relative positions between the lenses, thereby clearly focusing the light information onto the image sensor module 31.

[0063] See Figures 1-2 As an optional embodiment, the sight 100 also includes:

[0064] A knob 60 is located on the outer side of the main body 10 and is electrically connected to the video image general processing module. The knob 60 sends a first control command to the video image general processing module to control the display screen 40 to magnify the displayed image; or the knob 60 sends a second control command to the video image general processing module to control the display screen 40 to reduce the displayed image; and / or controls the switching of various parameters of the scope 100. The user can magnify or reduce the image displayed on the display screen 40 by rotating the knob 60. When it is necessary to set the parameters of the scope 100, the knob 60 can also be used to switch parameters; multiple parameters can be set on the knob 60.

[0065] A supplementary light 70 is located on the outside of the main body 10 and is electrically connected to the video image general processing module. The video image general processing module controls the operation of the supplementary light 70 according to a third control command. When the supplementary light 70 is working, it emits near-infrared light to illuminate the target. In the absence of any light, the objective lens 20 cannot collect effective light information, resulting in excessive noise generated by the image sensor module 31, which prevents the generation of effective video for transmission to the video image AI processing module 32. By turning on the supplementary light 70, the target can be illuminated to facilitate the collection of effective light information.

[0066] The memory is electrically connected to the video image general processing module. The video image general processing module controls the memory to store the recorded images according to the fourth control instruction. By configuring the memory, images or videos can be stored, thus enabling the scope 100 to perform photo or video recording functions.

[0067] See Figures 1-2 As an optional embodiment, the sight 100 also includes:

[0068] The display brightness control button 81 is located on the outer side of the main body 10 and is electrically connected to the video image general processing module. The display brightness control button 81 sends a fifth control command to the video image general processing module to control the display brightness of the display screen 40. The user can adjust the display brightness of the display screen 40 through the display brightness control button 81.

[0069] The fill light control button 82 is located on the outer side of the main body 10 and is electrically connected to the video image general processing module.

The user can control the operation of the fill light 70 through the fill light control button 82 to provide supplementary lighting to the surrounding environment, so that the objective lens 20 of the scope 100 can collect light information.

[0070] Image storage control button 83 is located on the outer side of the main body 10 and is electrically connected to the video image general processing module. Image storage control button 83 sends a fourth control command to the video image general processing module to control the memory to store the recorded image. The user can control the scope 100 to take pictures or record videos through image storage control button 83.

[0071] A preset target selection button 84 is located on the outer side of the main body 10 and is electrically connected to the video image AI processing module 32. It selects preset target information and sends it to the video image AI processing module 32. Users can select a target using the preset target selection button 84, and the video image AI processing module 32 marks the image according to the user's selected target.

[0072] As an optional embodiment, the display screen 40 can be a circular display screen or a square display screen. Optionally, the display screen 40 may use a 2.1-inch display screen from BOE.
