| 20110197460 | SIX-DIRECTION INDICATOR - A six-direction indicator is provided in an XYZ rectangular coordinate system and includes a shaft on an X axis, a rotation member rotatable around an axis inclined with respect to a rotation axis, guide pins provided upright on the rotation member, and a guide member provided around the X-axis to surround the rotation member. The guide member has a zigzag slit track bent alternately in a mountain-like shape and a valley-like shape in the X direction at intervals of 60° around the X-axis. The guide pins are inserted in the slit track and move around on the slit track by rotation of the shaft. The device indicates one of the positive and negative directions on the U, V, and W axes crossing one another at intervals of 60° around the X-axis. | 08-18-2011 |
| 20120222320 | METHOD OF DETERMINING HEADING BY TURNING AN INERTIAL DEVICE - A method of determining a heading by means of an inertial device ( | 09-06-2012 |
| 20130104409 | COMPASS | 05-02-2013 |
| 20130255090 | SIX-DIRECTION DIRECTING DEVICE - The six direction directing device includes a shaft, a rotation member, a driving source, and a guide member. The shaft extends in an X axis direction. The rotation member is rotatable around an inclined axis inclined at α deg with respect to the shaft. The rotation member has an xyz rectangular coordinate system. The rotation member further includes a spherical surface and an orbit portion formed around an x axis of the spherical surface. The guide member is fixed to an XYZ rectangular coordinate system. The orbit portion has such a shape that the y axis of the rotation member is sequentially directed in + and − directions on the U, V, and W axes that cross one another at intervals of 60 deg around the X axis when the rotation member is rotated in contact with the guide member by the rotation of the shaft. | 10-03-2013 |
| 20140082951 | ORIENTATION DEVICE INCLUDING MEANS FOR DETECTING THAT THE DEVICE IS LYING FLAT ON A SUPPORT - The invention relates to an orientation device comprising: a true north finder including a rate-gyroscope-type member, as well as sensors that can be used to measure the inclination of the device in relation to the horizontal, and associated calculation means for determining the orientation of the true north used on information provided by the rate gyroscope-type member and the sensors. According to the invention, the device also includes three feet that are used to support the device when it is placed on a support, at least one of said feet including a built-in sensor that changes state when the device is resting on a support by means of the feet, and means for automatically triggering the determination of the orientation of the north when the device is sufficiently horizontal and when the sensor indicates that it is placed on a support. | 03-27-2014 |
| 033325000 | Transmission system for remote readout | 1 |
| 20100024230 | IDENTIFYING A DIRECTIONAL REFERENCE USING RATE GYROS ORIENTED ALONG DIFFERENT AXES - A deployable stationary device includes a device support, rate gyros supported by the device support, the rate gyros being oriented along different axes, and a controller supported by the device support. The controller is arranged to receive rate gyro signals from the rate gyros. Each rate gyro signal indicates a rate of rotation about a respective axis associated with a particular rate gyro. The controller is further arranged to perform a vector sum operation based on the rate gyro signals, and generate a direction signal which identifies a direction resulting from performance of the vector summing operation. Such a deployable stationary device is capable of operating as one of a network of such devices in a surveillance system to enable detection and precise location of suspicious activity. | 02-04-2010 |
