Abstract
The invention pertains to a hand-held observation device and methods for observing distant targets, comprising at least a first optical observation channel defining a first observation optical axis by receiving and imaging optical light rays onto an image plane for observations of a user, a first eyepiece being arranged at the first optical observation channel, and a laser range finder for determining, along an axis of the laser range finder, a distance between the observation device and a target, wherein at least one light source is adapted to emit light to illuminate a user's eye at the first eyepiece, an image sensor that is adapted to capture images of the eye, and comprises an electronic image processing unit for determining, in real-time, eye parameters that indicate a gazing direction of the user.
