Abstract: A moving magnet voice coil actuator includes a bobbin that defines a non-straight opening for receiving a magnetic piece. The bobbin may be additively manufactured to a desired shape. The moving magnetic piece may be a curved piece that has a shape that corresponds to the shape of the opening. The magnetic piece may include a stack of magnets, which may be tapered, to allow limited tilting movement of the magnetic piece within the opening. The actuator may be part of a pair of actuators for tilting an object, for example a mirror, about a pivot point. The pair of actuators may be part of a system that includes an additional pair of actuators configured to tilt the object in a second direction that is different from the first direction.

Abstract: A boresight module includes a housing including an input window and an exit window. The boresight module further includes a lateral transfer hollow, dichroic beam splitter, retro-reflector (LTHSR) assembly supported by the housing. The LTHSR assembly includes a dichroic beam splitter. The boresight module further includes a corner cube coupled to the housing and a collimator including a collimator housing coupled to the housing and a target supported by the collimator housing. The target is configured to receive electromagnetic radiation from the input window to emit electromagnetic radiation through the exit window. A method of aligning a device with a boresight alignment module is further disclosed.
