First Claim
Patent Images
1. A beam alignment system for generating an aligned two-dimensional array of parallel light beams, comprising:
- a) a beam alignment chamber including;
i) a base, the base extending in a length direction having a front edge, a first side edge and a second side edge; and
ii) a plurality of reflectors mounted on the base, each having independent yaw and pitch adjustments; and
b) a plurality of arrays of light sources, each array of light sources generating an array of light beams and being paired with a corresponding reflector and being disposed to direct the light beams onto its corresponding reflector, and wherein the reflectors are disposed to direct the light beams along the length of the beam alignment chamber forming an aligned two-dimensional array of parallel light beams.
