red dot
Sniper's aiming aid
A red dot is a small circular mark, typically indicating a target, selection, or point of interest.
In optics, a red dot sight projects an illuminated aiming point onto a lens for faster target acquisition than traditional iron sights: I mounted a red dot on my pistol.
On maps or screens, red dots often mark locations or unread notifications.
In Indian culture, a red dot (bindi) worn on the forehead has religious and cultural significance.
