Abstract
An optical rotary joint includes a first annular portion and a second annular portion configured to rotate with respect to each other. Optical receivers on a receiver face of the second annular portion receive from optical transmit beam launchers on an emitter face of the first annular portion. The transmit beam launchers transmit optical signals to the optical receivers as the second annular portion rotates with respect to the first annular portion.
