Abstract:
A pseudo-stabilization technique for laser-based speed and rangefinding instruments utilizing a rate gyroscope to monitor the device pitch and yaw motion to operationally increase the effective range of the device by serving to obviate the emission of laser pulses off-target. In this manner, the pulse firing rate can be increased when the instrument is correctly aimed at the target as well enabling the concomitant emission of pulses with greater energy while remaining within the applicable Class 1 eye-safety constraints.
