Abstract

An optical correlator guidance technology demonstration program has been designed to illustrate the usefulness of an optical correlator in autonomous target recognition, tracking and vehicle guidance. The program will start with optical correlator systems which can recognize and track a cooperative target with a single holographic matched spatial filter, and will conclude with a system capable of autonomous recognition and tracking of a realistic target.
