See full text

The present disclosure relates to a device (100) for determining orientation of an object (3). The device (100) includes a hollow-spherical enclosure (2) supportable by the object (3) and a plurality of sensors (S1 . . . Sn) circumferentially disposed in the hollow-spherical enclosure (2). A gimbal assembly (1) is secured in the hollow-spherical enclosure (2), where at least one gimbal ring of the gimbal assembly (1) is fixed perpendicular to a gravitational weight a gravitational vector (G) of the gimbal assembly (1). Further, at least one light source (8) is secured in the gimbal assembly (1) and the gimbal assembly (1) is configured to align the at least one light source (8) relative to orientation of the object (3) such that, the light emitted by the at least one light source (8) is incident on at least one sensor of the plurality of sensors (S1 . . . Sn), to determine orientation of the object (3).
