Tech/Engineering - Patents / (in a patent) networked battle system
English term or phrase: bearing
a networked battle system is disclosed. The system includes a communication network, a first rifle, an accessory holding device coupled to the first rifle, and a sensor pack attached to the accessory holding device that includes a sensor for determining a bearing of the first rifle, a sensor for an accelerometer and a rate gyroscope.

a battlefield system that includes a bearing sensor that determines a bearing of a battlefield device

The accessories include, for example, telescopic sights, tactical sights, laser sighting modules, Global Positioning Systems (GPS), bearing sensors, inclination sensors, laser distance measuring devices, accelerometers, microphones, video cameras, cameras and night vision scopes

the system includes a sensor capable
of determining a bearing of firearm . Such a sensor may be a compass or part of a GPS device or other device. In one example, the angular (bearing, pitch and roll) information may be determined from sensors contained in PDA 140.

the firearm includes at least one set of angular sensors to determine the inclination, roll and bearing with respect to the horizontal axis of the firearm .

The bearing information (shown by compass 203) described above can be used to position a possible impact location 202 of the projectile in along the y axis.
Similarly, information from an angular sensors and the ballistic information can be used to determine how far the projectile will travel and the, thus, determines the location of the impact location 202. As the firearm as raised upward, the impact location 202 translates up on the map 201.
