  • Peripheral vision artificial horizon device and associated methods
    Patent number: 4743903
    Abstract: An artificial horizon device producing a projected light bar perceivable with peripheral vision. The device includes a scanner assembly with a pair of rapidly movable scanning mirrors each selectively pivotal about respective mutually perpendicular axes. A beam of light is directed upon a first of the pair of scanning mirrors for reflection upon the second of the mirrors, and thence to illuminate a surface for perception as a relatively movable horizontal reference line. A single adjustment mirror is interposed between the source of the light beam and the first of the scanning mirrors. The adjustment mirror is selectively movable about two mutually perpendicular axes each substantially intersecting the reflective plane of the adjustment mirror in order to set a selected point of incidence for the light beam upon the first of the scanning mirrors.
