Segmentation method for terminal aimpoint determination on moving objects and apparatus therefor

A conventional tracker 14 is used to continually aim a sensor 12 at a flying object so that it is located in substantially the same spatial location in a plurality of image frames taken at different times. Thus, the object remains in about the same spatial position in each image frame while the back...

Zusammenfassung:A conventional tracker 14 is used to continually aim a sensor 12 at a flying object so that it is located in substantially the same spatial location in a plurality of image frames taken at different times. Thus, the object remains in about the same spatial position in each image frame while the background clutter generally changes. By processing two or more of the image frames it is possible to calculate a more precise aimpoint for the object than is generally provided by the track point.
