Image stabilization system
Abstract
An image stabilization system is presented to demonstrate an application of a fast steering mirror and a wide angle optical sensor used in closed loop operation. Two parallel optical paths are used, the visual image path for the TV viewer and the IR diode path for the stabilization loop. This operation is very similar to a laser designator type tracker. The demonstration is intended to show the use of modular electro-optic components which are becoming widely used in optical control systems.
