ABSTRACT:
For initial alignment of a simulator laser-projector with a weapon, the weapon is boresighted on a target, the projector is fitted and the laser beam is scanned stepwise across the target successively along orthogonal axes. The range of steps on each axis for which a return from the target occurs is sensed, and the step corresponding to the median of all the returns taken as the position for which the laser beam is centered on the target. These calculated positions are stored and used as the reference positions during simulated firing of the weapon. The detection of the position of a target for hit/miss determination is achieved with the same scanning and median selection procedure.
