紅點鏡
紅點鏡(red dot sight),也叫內紅點,部份型號又名反射式瞄準鏡(英語:reflector sight 或 reflex sight),是一種無放大率的光學瞄具,有光亮的瞄準點(通常為一紅點)。一些望遠鏡及內置取景器的「傻瓜相機」亦會載有紅點鏡。
由於紅點鏡中射入眼睛的光點(光射)永遠與紅點鏡平衡,即使眼睛不在紅點鏡的中軸上,也能透過紅點準確瞄準,可提升高速移動或身體搖晃時的射擊精確度,因此被各國大量使用於軍事槍械甚至戰機的抬頭顯示器上。另外,特殊光線除了可由發光二極管生成外,亦可由自然光或極低放射性的放射物(半永久有效)提供。
與激光束瞄準差異
紅點鏡與激光瞄准器不同:激光指示器是一種能將一激光紅點投射於目標上的器材,而紅點鏡則把特殊光線由鍍膜鏡片(析光鏡)點狀反射進射手眼睛;所以目標無法發現自己身上有光點。
