• Enables stiff-neck (strapdown) laser seeker configuration
• Low cost:
– Based on CMOS silicon image sensors
– Supporting large FOV without gimbals
• Legacy compatibility with pulsed laser designators (Nato STANAG 3733), and support for CW laser designators.
• High sensitivity: 10-15x better than 4Q, higher detection ranges (2-3x) vs 4Q
• Exact target location allowing accurate, “smooth” guidance
• Spot(s) shape analysis supporting smart guidance decisions
• Saturation immunity enables tracking until last few meters
• Can be used as a combined “Laser/TV Seeker”
