2219 results about "Sight" patented technology

A sight is an aiming device used to assist in visually aligning ranged weapons, surveying instruments or optical illumination equipments with the intended target. Sights can be a simple set or system of markers that have to be aligned together with the target (such as iron sights on firearms), or optical devices that allow the user to see a sometimes optically enhanced (e.g. magnified) image of the target aligned in the same focus with an aiming point (e.g. telescopic sights, reflector sights and holographic sights). There are also sights that project an aiming point (or a "hot spot") onto the target itself, such as laser sights and infrared illuminators on some night vision devices.

A holographic sight based on volume Bragg grating

The invention discloses a holographic sight based on a volume Bragg grating, and belongs to the field of holographic optics. The holographic sight comprises a sight housing, a semiconductor laser, a wave-locking element, a beam expander, an off-axis parabolic reflector and a holographic grating. The wave-locking element is a reflective volume Bragg grating, and the holographic grating is a transmissive volume Bragg grating. Both have excellent selectivity for the wavelength and incident angle of light. At the same time, both are made of photothermorefractive glass, which is less affected by the external temperature and can effectively reduce the deviation of the output wavelength, thereby reducing the deviation of the holographic grating mark image and increasing the accuracy and stability of the holographic sight. The photothermorefractive glass has a high refractive index modulation degree, which achieves a higher holographic diffraction efficiency, making the displayed holographic image brighter and more recognizable. In addition, the components of the beam expander and the off-axis parabolic reflector are used to shorten the optical path and reduce the overall structural size of the sight.

3D Vision Aided GNSS Real-time Kinematic Positioning for Autonomous Systems in Urban Canyons

In estimating a position of a vehicle utilizing a global navigation satellite system (GNSS), it is desirable to exclude outliner GNSS measurements due to navigation signals via non-light-of-sight paths from the GNSS to the vehicle, but it leads to a distorted satellite geometry distribution. Complementariness between low-lying visual landmarks and healthy but high-elevation satellite measurements is explored to improve the geometry constraint. Measurements of an inertial measurement unit, low-lying visual landmarks captured by a forward-looking camera onboard the vehicle, and healthy but high-elevation satellite measurements are tightly-coupled integrated via sliding window optimization of system states used in a factor graph. To improve estimation performance, good initial guesses of system states are important. As such, initial guesses of velocity set and position set inside a sliding window are estimated simultaneously based on data of Doppler measurement, double-differenced (DD) pseudorange measurement and DD carrier-phase measurement as obtained in GNSS measurements.
