Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for slewing a light beam axis directly between points on the ground. One method involves determining a first position associated with a beam axis of a lighting arrangement in a Cartesian reference frame based on an initial orientation of the lighting arrangement in a spherical reference frame, determining an adjustment for the lighting arrangement in the Cartesian reference frame in response to a user input, determining an updated position for the beam axis in the Cartesian reference frame based on the first position and the adjustment in the Cartesian reference frame, transforming the updated position for the beam axis in the Cartesian reference frame to an updated orientation of the lighting arrangement in the spherical reference frame, and concurrently commanding actuators associated with the lighting arrangement to slew the lighting arrangement from the initial orientation to the updated orientation in the spherical reference frame.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for a mobile platform. The systems include an assembly comprising a device, wherein the assembly is configured to controllably articulate to direct the device toward positions on the ground, a human-to-machine input (HMI) device configured to allow a user to manually operate the assembly to execute a slew operation wherein the device is redirected from a first position on the ground to a second position along a desired path, a sensor system configured to sense an attitude of the mobile platform, and a controller configured to, by a processor: receive the attitude from the sensor system, receive a slew command from the HMI device, and modify operation of the assembly, based on the sensor data, during the slew operation to compensate for attitude disturbances such that an actual path along which the device is directed matches the desired path.
