Touchless Firearm Firing Control and Optic Positioning Assembly

The patent replaces the traditional mechanical trigger pressure system with a touchless sensor-based firing control assembly. The sensor detects the presence or movement of the shooter's finger without physical contact, and an actuator (such as a solenoid or electromagnetic device) automatically actuates the firing pin. This substitution of mechanical trigger manipulation with sensor detection and electromagnetic actuation eliminates the need for manual trigger pressure while improving shooting consistency and accuracy.

The patent introduces an intermediary system between the shooter and the firing mechanism. This intermediary consists of the touchless sensor that detects finger presence, the control circuitry that processes the detection signal, and the actuator that translates the signal into mechanical firing action. This intermediary chain eliminates direct mechanical trigger pressure while maintaining precise control over the firing moment, thereby improving shooting accuracy.

The patent employs a vision capture device (camera) to create a digital copy or image of the field of view through the optic. This captured image is then processed to detect the position of the red dot relative to the target. By using an optical copy rather than direct visual observation, the system can precisely measure and record sight alignment, providing objective data about the positioning accuracy without requiring complex mechanical adjustment mechanisms.

The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the vision capture device continuously or periodically captures images of the field of view, and the system analyzes the position of the red dot in these images. This feedback information about actual sight alignment can be used to adjust the optic positioning or provide guidance to the shooter. The feedback loop improves sight alignment precision by enabling continuous monitoring and correction without adding complex mechanical positioning systems.
