Abstract

We are developing a wide-field-of-view (WFOV) telescope system for military, commercial and scientific purposes. The system will have smart focal plane processors to recognize and track moving objects. This paper describes candidate algorithms intended for these processors which are currently implemented on a commercial image processing system interfaced to our prototype WFOV telescope.
