Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2758625A1] The invention concerns the field of focusing and aiming instruments and more particularly a device for determining the direction of a target in a predetermined index mark comprising focusing means (10), means (20) for resetting these focusing means (10) and means (30) for processing signals derived from the focusing means (10), these processing means (30) being capable of determining values representing the direction between the focusing means (10) and the target and transmitting them to display means (40) or external means (50, 60). The device is characterised in that the focusing means (10) comprise a focusing member (13) three gyrometers (141, 142, 143) arranged along three axes substantially perpendicular to one another and means for controlling (16) the transmission to the display means (40) or to the external means (50, 60), of values representing the direction between the focusing means and the target.
