The FN Pervue is introduced as FN's first micro orthographic red dot sight, leveraging waveguide optic technology from the augmented reality market for a more compact design. This new optical architecture uses image guide technology to create a true orthographic sight where the dot is an image, not a reflection. It features an on-axis light path directed to the bottom of the glass and conducted to the user's eye via a nano structure, resulting in a clear, tint-free, flat lens with no optical aberrations. Designed to be ruggedized yet lightweight and compact, it was initially developed for pistols due to their demanding nature for red dot sights, and has been validated on other FN platforms to meet robustness standards. The Pervue signifies FN's broader optics strategy and commitment to integrated solutions.
