Abstract:
La présente invention a pour objet un équipement mobile de mesure de caractéristiques photométriques de feux de balisage aéroportuaire, comprenant un barreau de mesure destiné à être déplacé au dessus de feux de balisage à contrôler, dans les faisceaux lumineux émis par ces feux, et des moyens de mesure de la distance entre ledit barreau de mesure et les feux à contrôler, ledit barreau de mesure portant au moins un capteur photométrique, et comprenant des moyens d'acquisition et de traitement des signaux émis par ledit ou lesdits capteurs photométriques, en fonction de la distance mesurée entre ledit barreau de mesure et les feux à contrôler, lesdits moyens d'acquisition et de traitement étant aptes à générer un ensemble de données représentatives de caractéristiques photométriques de chaque feu contrôlé.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a mobile device (1) for the control and/or maintenance of at least one item of equipment of an airport zone, characterized in that said device is motorized without a crew, adapted to move around on an airport runway, and comprises: • a module for controlling the location (3) of said device (1), • a navigation module (14) adapted for determining at least one trajectory of said device (1) towards or on said at least one item of equipment defined as a function of the location (x R ,y R ) of said device (1) and of the location (x F ,y F ) of at least one light source (7), • at least one module for control and/or maintenance of said at least one item of equipment, comprising at least one articulated arm (15).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a mobile device for measuring photometric characteristics of airport runway lights, including a measuring rod to be moved over runway lights to be checked in the light beams emitted by said lights, and a means for measuring the distance between said measuring rod and the lights to be checked, said measuring rod having at least one photometric sensor, and including a means for acquiring and processing the signals transmitted by said photometric sensor(s) on the basis of the measured distance between said measuring rod and the lights to be checked, said acquisition and processing means being capable of generating a set of data that are representative of photometric characteristics of each checked light.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a mobile apparatus for measuring the characteristics of a light beam emitted by a lamp, comprising at least two differently-colored angular portions, wherein said apparatus includes a bracket for changing the position of a measuring assembly, said measuring assembly including a single directable camera provided with a zoom capable of assuming at least a first low-magnification position for providing reduced magnification and a wide angle of field in order to detect the position of the lamp so as to precisely direct the camera in the direction thereof, and a second high-magnification position in order to obtain an image of the lamp so as to analyze the characteristics of a light beam emitted by a lamp.
