Conceptual Design and Analysis of High Speed Electronic Imaging.
Abstract
This study addresses the feasibility of using electronic imaging technology for aeroballistics research. Electronic imaging devices are analyzed with respect to range system characteristics. Optical imaging and illumination parameters in the existing system are defined and quantified. System imaging capability is measured and described by modern imaging systems analysis in terms of the system response to a step function input. Two independent measurements that determine system illumination are described and supporting analysis is included. Concepts critical to data analysis are discussed, along with a survey of available hardware that will image and process projectile flight path data. Recommendations pertinent to the selection of hardware and the overall system organization and maintenance are made.
