An Improved Walleye Television Camera

Abstract

This report describes the improved Walleye television (TV) camera that was specifically designed to meet the requirements of the improved Walleye guidance system. In this system, the volume available for the camera was considerably less than that in the original Walleye. As a result, a shorter vidicon was employed to gain more longitudinal space, and integrated circuit components were used so that most of the electronics occupy a single printed- circuit module. In addition to reconfiguring the system, the performance was improved, adjustment procedures were simplified, and a practical electronic zoom method was developed.
