Light Intensified Fiber Optic Sight

Abstract

A method and apparatus providing for the enhancement of the brightness of a fiber optic sight. Whereby the fiber optic sight is enhanced by way of any number of lenses used to focus ambient light onto the fiber optic cable.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An optic sight for weapons comprising:
 A cable to absorb and emit light;   A means to focus light on said cable;   
     
     
         2 . The means to focus light from  claim 1  wherein said means involves a focusing lens to focus ambient light on said cable; 
     
     
         3 . The means from  claim 2  wherein said means increases the brightness of said cable; 
     
     
         4 . The means from  claim 3  wherein said means increases shooter's ability to shoot accurately in light compromised situations. 
     
     
         5 . The means from  claim 2  wherein said means involves a plurality of focusing lenses to focus ambient light on said cable; 
     
     
         6 . The means from  claim 5  wherein said means increases the brightness of said cable; 
     
     
         7 . The means from  claim 6  wherein said means increases the shooter's ability to shoot accurately in light compromised situations. 
     
     
         8 . The optic sight from  claim 1  wherein said optic sight is used to aid the accuracy of the shooter. 
     
     
         9 . The optic sight from  claim 1  wherein said optic sight is particularly used in times when ambient light availability is reduced or compromised, such as at nighttime. 
     
     
         10 . The means to focus light from  claim 1  wherein said means allows for an increase in the brightness of said cable; 
     
     
         11 . The means from  claim 10  wherein said means increases the shooter's ability to shoot accurately in light compromised situations.
