The advent of intelligent, target-seeking submunitions has generated the need to remotely sense their aimpoint with respect to a target. Conventional still photography and cine techniques cannot provide the required accuracy. This paper describes an aimpoint measurement system consisting of an array of tracking video sensors. The derivation of submunition aimpoint from the tracking geometry and projectile attitude will be described. Error mechanisms within the tracking and image processing systems will be identified and their combined influence on system accuracy will he assessed.Sponsors
