Automatic Target Designation/Recognition,
Abstract
The use of pattern recognition techniques for automatic target designation in television-guided weapons is investigated. Computer simulation was used. Target signatures were either drawings digitized by hand or video-taped images of models digitized by machine. A feature-extraction algorithm was designed and used. Encouraging results were obtained from lab equipment, which consisted of a TV camera, a digital-image memory processor, and a minicomputer. (Author)
