  • Impact-detection device, in particular for a missile comprising at least one waveguide extends through the cross-section of an annual ring
    Patent number: 10551158
    Abstract: An impact-detection device includes at least one waveguide provided at each of the two ends thereof with a connector. The device further includes a ring with a curved outer contour. The ring forms a separate part with planar radial surfaces. The waveguide is built into the body of the ring about the ring, and the two ends of the waveguide are arranged on the outside of the ring.
    Type: Grant

    Inventors: Bernard Greiner, Mathieu Loosfeld, Kevin Tastets
  • Process for correcting aberration defects within an optical device for observing a field through a window
    Patent number: 10180568
    Abstract: The window substantially has the shape of a dome. The optical observation device includes means of optical conjugation of the observed field with a plane of observation and means for relatively orienting the observation plane with respect to said field. Optical correction means are provided so as to correct aberration defects. According to the device, system, and method, said optical correction means are arranged between said windows and said relative orientation means in such a way that said optical correction means form an optical system with said window, which is at least substantially afocal.
