Latest Patents
Doug A Jones holds a patent for a "Gyroscopic system for boresighting equipment." This invention provides a gyroscopic system for translating parallel and non-parallel lines between a reference line and a device that needs to be aligned. The system features a first inertial sensor that remains stationary and includes a three-axis gyroscopic sensor and a reflector. Additionally, a portable second inertial sensor is designed to be positioned adjacent to the first sensor, incorporating a gimbal restricted to two physical axes, a gimbal drive system, an electromagnetic energy beam generator, and another three-axis gyroscopic sensor. The collimator within the system determines the angle between the projected beam and the reflected beam, generating an output signal indicative of this angle. A control circuit processes the output signals from the sensors to determine the relative orientations of the two inertial sensors.
