an emitter array including a plurality of light emitters, each of the plurality of light emitters capable of being independently operated to produce light;
a surface structured to reflect light from the emitter array to a user of the firearm;
an accelerometer having an output related to movement of the reflex sight; and
a controller having an input configured to receive the accelerometer output and to individually control the operation of the plurality of light emitters in the emitter array based on the accelerometer output.
