AN AUTOMATIC-ELECTRO OPTICAL SATELLITE TRIANGULATION SYSTEM.

Abstract

The passage of light-emitting targets over a special reticule of a telescope are recorded by photoelectric means on (magnetic) tape and then processed in an electric computer. The system is useful for satellite triangulation and studies of trajectories. (Author)
