  • Optical tracking of charged particle beams
    Patent number: 5151746
    Abstract: Radiated images of the propagation path of a charged particle beam simultously projected to spaced points on a platform, are recorded therat by path tracking video cameras. Data on the positional orientations of the path tracking cameras during reception of simultaneously projected images, measured by inertial sensors, is utilized to calculate the location and direction of the beam propagation path by iterative triangulation.
