Modeling the Helmet-Mounted Sight System.

Abstract

This report describes the development of an error model for the Helmet-Mounted Sight System. This model is designed to generate the HMS aiming errors that are encountered when the sight is used in the Navigation Update role. This report details the research performed to identify, catagorize, and model the Helmet-Mounted Sight (HMS) errors. The HMS error model includes error generated by the human operator, the HMS equipment, the vibration environment, canopy refraction, and the system boresighting procedure. The final portion of this report demonstrates the performance of this model in a Monte Carlo simulation program. (Author)
