The Kerrison Predictor was one of the first fully automated anti-aircraft fire-control systems. The Predictor solved the problem by doing all of the calculations mechanically through a complex system of gears. Inputs to its calculations included wind speed, ballistics of the gun and the rounds it fired, angle to the target in azimuth and altitude, and a user-input estimated target speed. Some of these inputs were fed in by dials, which turned gearing inside the Predictor to calculate the range(from the change in angle and estimated speed) and direction of motion.  1, record 3, English, - Kerrison%20Predictor

While the SFCS has a number of features and capabilities designed to vastly improve target identification and hand-off among a number of operators, its core is a muzzle velocity sensor. The system sits on the Picatinny rail of any weapon and draws on a number of acoustic sensors to characterize how the weapon is performing between the time the primer of a round is struck and the bullet leaves the barrel.... Meteorological and other sensor inputs are fed into a ballistics computation that then gives a range azimuth correction to the operator. It helps the operator correct his aim point so that his probability of hit for second, third and fourth rounds is that much more accurate.  1, record 4, English, - soldier%20fire%20control%20system

L'erreur de localisation absolue peut être calculée pour un point de l'image en comparant la latitude et la longitude de la position du pic de réponse impulsionnelle du transpondeur avec la position en latitude et en longitude réelle du transpondeur. Les produits standard de RADARSAT générés par le Centre canadien de traitement des données sont traités en utilisant une altitude de zéro mètre (c'est-à-dire au niveau de la mer). De plus, un délai est introduit dans la rétrodiffusion du signal par le RTP. Puisque le radar à synthèse d'ouverture (RSO) est un système utilisant la distance, ce délai d'environ 1,8 microseconde produit un déplacement de la réplique du transpondeur à une distance plus grande (distance mesurée à partir du capteur).  3, record 6, French, - erreur%20de%20localisation%20absolue
