Abstract: A fire-control device for a small arm includes an inertial sensor unit for six degrees of freedom, a distance sensor for determining a distance to a target sighted via a sight, and a computation device for determining a target orientation of the small arm from the distance so as to be able to hit the target, the computation device being set up to detect a change in position of the small arm by way of the inertial sensor unit and to correct the target orientation using data from the inertial sensor unit.

Abstract: A fire control sight for a hand-held firearm includes a sight housing, a front sight, and a sight guide having two sight guide side pieces with a plurality of sight crosspieces forming rear sights. The fire control sight also includes a range finder, at least one inertial sensor and/or a magnetic field sensor, a control computer, and a display device for displaying an optimal orientation of the barrel axis of the hand-held firearm determined by the control computer.

Abstract: A digital phase modulator for a fiber-optic measurement device. A predetermined total number of electrodes of different lengths are arranged in parallel and on both sides of a light guidance path in or on an optical substrate. The electrodes are arranged in two or more triples along the light guidance path. In each case, two electrodes of successive length within a triple have the same length ratio with respect to one another. Such length ratio is chosen, in particular, to be ?=1.618. The electrode lengths of this triple are chosen such that the smallest step widths of the output value range of the phase modulator can be formed by subtraction between the values of at least two larger electrodes. This allows the resolution of the phase modulator to be increased from 9 bits to 11 bits without change in chip size.

Abstract: A method and arrangement of electrodes for increasing the resolution of a digital phase modulator for a fiber-optic signal transmission or measuring device. A predetermined total number m of electrodes of different lengths are arranged parallel and on both sides with respect to a light guiding path in or on an optical substrate. The electrodes are divided into two groups. A first group n of electrodes represents a coarse modulator with binary and more significant weighted electrodes of length ratio bn+0:bn=2, the longest electrode of which corresponds to the sum of lengths of all the remaining electrodes of the overall modulator. A second, smaller group of n0 non-binary and less significant weighted electrodes represents a fine modulator. The smallest output values are not formed by driving individual electrodes of the fine modulator, but rather by forming the difference, in each case, between two larger electrodes.
