Abstract

A clip-on eyepiece system that enables a single portable digital imager to be used in both handheld and device-mounted applications is disclosed. The system has a clip-on eyepiece assembly that includes an inverting or a non-inverting eyepiece, a clip-on bracket, a T-mount, and a magnet. The digital imager comprises a display, a mounting rail, a Hall-effect sensor, and a processor all configured to dynamically determine which type of eyepiece, if any, is attached, and to dynamically set system parameters to configure the digital imager for use in either a handheld or a mounted mode. A method for setting operational parameters when the user attaches or detaches the clip-on eyepiece assembly is also disclosed.
