ABSTRACT:
An present invention is an illuminator device designed to be coupled to the tripod mount of a night vision device which allows a user to adjust the direction of a beam of light projected by an illuminator relative to the line of sight of the night vision device. The illuminator device includes an light source and a mounting assembly. The mounting assembly is biased against the night vision device thereby maintaining the direction of a projected beam from the light source substantially parallel to the line of sight of the night vision device. The mounting assembly includes a rigid member whose longitudinal axis is maintained substantially perpendicular to the bottom surface the night vision device and a free-floating member attached to the illuminator whose position can be changed relative to the line of sight of the night vision device. An adjustable element is provided to change the position of the free-floating member relative to the night vision device thereby changing the angle of a projected beam of light relative to the line of sight of the night vision device.
