GRASPABLE MOBILE CONTROL ELEMENT SIMULATING A JOYSTICK OR THE LIKE WITH AT LEAST ONE CONTROL ELEMENT WITH PHYSICAL END STOP, AND ASSOCIATED METHOD OF SIMULATION

摘要

A control system with a graspable mobile control element, including:
means of determining the values of components of the gravity vector along at least one axis of a moving reference frame tied to the mobile element, including a motion sensor assembly including an accelerometer with at least one axis for measurements and a gyroscope with at least one measurement axis, by fusion of measurements delivered by the accelerometer and the gyroscope;processing means suitable for converting, by direct application of a gain, said components into output signals corresponding to those of a joystick equivalent provided with at least one control element with a physical stop; and

means of delivery of said output signals corresponding to said joystick equivalent with at least one control element with a physical stop.

1. A control system with a graspable mobile control element, including:
a determining system configured to determine values of components of a gravity vector along at least one axis of a moving reference frame tied to the mobile element, the determining system including a motion sensor assembly having an accelerometer with at least one axis for measurements and a gyroscope with at least one measurement axis, the determining system utilizing measurements delivered by the accelerometer and the gyroscope to obtain the values of the components of the gravity vector; a processor configured to convert, by direct application of a gain, said components into output signals corresponding to those of a joystick equivalent provided with at least one control element with a physical stop; and an output system configured to provide said output signals corresponding to said joystick equivalent with at least one control element with a physical stop to another device.
