131 results about "Horology" patented technology

Horology ("the study of time", related to Latin horologium from Greek ὡρολόγιον, "instrument for telling the hour", from ὥρα hṓra "hour; time" and -o- interfix and suffix -logy) is the study of the measurement of time. Clocks, watches, clockwork, sundials, hourglasses, clepsydras, timers, time recorders, marine chronometers, and atomic clocks are all examples of instruments used to measure time. In current usage, horology refers mainly to the study of mechanical time-keeping devices, while chronometry more broadly includes electronic devices that have largely supplanted mechanical clocks for the best accuracy and precision in time-keeping.

Smart sensor driven watch timekeeping accuracy calibration system

This invention provides an intelligent sensor-driven clock timing accuracy calibration system, relating to the field of data processing technology. It acquires raw temperature sequence data with time stamps and location information by deploying temperature sensing units at different heating locations on the clock timing device; identifies the dominant heating region based on the temperature change rate and duration and generates corresponding weights; analyzes the heat transfer time difference in conjunction with the crystal oscillator installation position to construct a local thermal effect response sequence with time lag; derives the crystal oscillator frequency evolution process based on this response sequence and generates a predicted frequency offset; pre-adjusts the timing pulse before errors occur to form a timing reference signal; and simultaneously corrects the dominant heat source weights and heat transfer delay relationship by comparing with an external standard time source, achieving dynamic calibration of timing accuracy.
