ABSTRACT:
A measuring device for the location and attitude determination of an object, for example, of a space craft for the purpose of docking. At the object several light sources are located, each intensity-modulated with a different code frequency. Optics of the measuring device reproduce the object on a position-sensitive detector. On the basis of its output signals, the image coordinates of the light sources are computed by way of an evaluating device using a frequency multiplexing process.
