Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the designation of objectives, comprising a direct aiming member (D), associated with a gyroscopic unit (G) with three axes not parallel to each other and coupled firstly to means for analyzing the signals issuing from the sighting member, said means being able to determine the direction between the sighting member and said objectives and to transmit it to the distant control station provided with action means, and secondly to means (2) for recalibrating the gyroscopic unit, characterized in that it further comprises image-acquisition means (A) providing photography of the objectives, said acquisition means being associated with the direct-sighting member (D) and coupled to software means for processing the images and to means (E) for displaying said images.

Abstract: 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 a focusing element, a resetting device for resetting the focusing element and a device for processing signals derived from the focusing element, the processing device determining values representing the direction between the focusing element and the target and transmitting the values to a display or an external system. The device is characterized in that the focusing element has a focusing member of three gyrometers arranged along three axes substantially perpendicular to one another and a controller that controls the transmission of the values representing the direction between the focusing element and the target to the display or to the external system.
