MULTIFREQUENCY AUTOMATIC ROTATIONAL SHUTTER FOR DETERMINING THE VELOCITY OF MOVING LUMINOUS CELESTIAL SOURCES SUCH AS METEORS, FIREBALLS, AIRSHIPS OR SPACE MACHINES

摘要

The present invention consists of an internal device which makes it possible to determine, at any time, the angular velocity of any object visible in the sky from a particular terrestrial location. If images of that very object are taken from two geographical locations which are at a sufficient distance, it will also be possible to determine the trajectory, actual velocity and place at which said object falls to the terrestrial surface. Knowing this last parameter with precision is of great help in finding the remains of meteorites. The main features of this patent are: easy assembly and adaptation to different types of cameras, operating capacity, transportability and reduced production price.
