Advanced Weapon System (AWS) Sensor Prediction Techniques Study. Volume I

Abstract

This study investigated, identified, and developed technology necessary to support efficient computer simulation of Advanced Weapon Systems (AWS) sensor images associated with low altitude flight. A main objective of the study was to delineate approaches to the solution of data base storage and processing problems characteristic of low altitude flight sensor image simulation. The tasks carried out to achieve this objective included analysis of scene content requirements, a survey of relevant computer graphics and image processing technology, and evaluation of experimental image generation algorithms carried out by General Electric. The functional description of a research laboratory system for sensor display simulation is presented.
