Abstract:
The invention regards an external vision and/or weapon aiming system for a military land vehicle and/or a military naval unit. The system comprises: two sensors configured to capture video streams of a same external scene, each in a respective spectral band; an electronic processing unit configured to insert a respective aiming reticle in the images of each captured video stream, thereby generating a corresponding pre-processed video stream, and to process the two pre-processed video streams; and a user interface configured to display a video stream received from the electronic processing unit. The system is characterized in that the electronic processing unit is configured to process the two pre-processed video streams by means of image enhancement and picture-in-picture functionalities, thereby generating first and second enhanced video streams.
Abstract:
The disclosure concerns an external vision and/or weapon aiming and firing system for a military land vehicle and/or a military aircraft and/or a military naval unit. The system comprises: a video capture device configured to capture a video stream of a scene outside the military land vehicle or the military aircraft or the military naval unit; an electronic control unit configured to insert an aiming reticle in the images of said video stream, thereby generating a corresponding output video stream; and a user interface configured to display the output video stream generated by the electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is programmed to automatically change the color of the aiming reticle so as to maximize its contrast with respect to a predefined region of the images of the video stream centerd on said aiming reticle.

The invention regards an external vision and/or weapon aiming system (1) for a military land vehicle and/or a military naval unit. The system comprises: two sensors (11, 12) configured to capture video streams of a same external scene, each in a respective spectral band; an electronic processing unit (13) configured to insert a respective aiming reticle in the images of each captured video stream, thereby generating a corresponding pre-processed video stream, and to process the two pre-processed video streams; and a user interface (14) configured to display a video stream received from the electronic processing unit (13). The system is characterized in that the electronic processing unit (13) is configured to process the two pre-processed video streams by means of image enhancement and picture-in-picture functionalities, thereby generating first and second enhanced video streams.
