The system includes an inclination sensor configured to detect angular tilt relative to gravity and a processing module configured to compare the detected tilt against a predefined deadband threshold corresponding to a plumb orientation. When the shooting device deviates from the plumb condition, the processing module activates an audio output module that generates distinct audio signals representing left-tilt and right-tilt conditions, while producing a null or muted output when the device remains within the deadband. The system may further include variable tone pitch or volume, wireless audio transmission to earbuds or headsets, calibration mechanisms, front-rear inclination detection, and idle-state shutoff. The invention provides continuous, hands-free cant feedback without requiring visual attention.

Target positioning method, device and equipment applied to optical observation and medium

PendingCN122170701ASighting devicesGeographical information databasesOptical observationGeographic Mapping
This invention discloses a target positioning method, apparatus, device, and medium for optical observation. The target positioning method for optical observation collects and caches the relative distance and azimuth of the target using optical observation equipment. Upon detecting a target locking signal triggered by the type or usage of the carrying equipment, the data is immediately frozen and transmitted wirelessly to a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal combines the received data with its own positioning module's current location, calculates the target's geographic coordinates using a geodetic model, marks the location on a map interface, and generates a navigation path. This achieves automatic target location locking and geographic mapping after firing, effectively solving the problems of difficulty and low efficiency caused by the large difference between thermal imaging field of view and the actual landscape, requiring manual GPS repositioning in existing technologies. It significantly improves the accuracy and convenience of target search after long-range nighttime firing.
