NAVIGATION AND POINTING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CALIBRATING A NAVIGATION AND POINTING SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a method for calibrating a navigation and pointing system (10) comprising a navigation unit connected jointly to a pointing device, the navigation unit being configured to measure the orientation of a navigation mark. , the pointing device being configured to measure a signal in a pointing mark. The calibration method comprises the following steps: - selecting a first flat surface (8) and a second flat surface; acquiring measurements by means of the system by orienting the pointing direction towards the first plane surface (8), and respectively towards the second plane surface according to a plurality of predetermined orientations; applying an algorithm for processing the measurements acquired in the preceding step to extract the misalignment angles between the navigation mark and the score mark
