Zusammenfassung:	Apparatus for identifying an element within an array of elements, is disclosed as including a video camera (12), with a fixed reticle (16) for sighting to facilitate the operator to position the camera in an orientation so that the camera is aligned with or sighted upon the element (32) within the array, an operator-controllable device (18) coupled to the video camera to permit the operator to variably position the camera, orientation sensing resolvers (20a, 20b) coupled to the sighting camera to provide an output signal indicative of the particular orientation of the camera, and a microprocessor (22) responsive to the position indicating signals to provide a manifestation indicating the element's position within the field, as sighted by the operator.
