Digital positioning system and associated method for optically and automatically stabilizing and realigning a portable weapon through and after a firing shock

A digital positioning method for interfacing with a portable weapon to automatically realign the portable weapon through and after a firing shock that saturates electronic components of the portable weapon, the digital positioning method comprising the steps of:

• receiving target destination data at a digital fire control device;
• establishing communication with, and transmitting the target destination data to an automatic calibration and pointing device with a digital fire control device;
• generating a reference orientation based on the target destination data with the automatic calibration and pointing device;
• storing the generated reference orientation in memory at the automatic calibration and pointing device;
• acquiring a current orientation of the portable weapon, independently of the saturated electronic components with the automatic calibration and pointing device in response to the firing shock;
• outputting data that are based on the stored reference orientation and the acquired current orientation of the portable weapon with the automatic calibration and pointing device in response to the firing shock;
• and
• repositioning the portable weapon with the mechanical alignment and orientation mechanism in response to the outputted data.
