Abstract

In recent years the development of a system to detect and measure the trajectory of a projectile by its backscatter using a laser light source has been presented. The used principle of the described system requires a dark environment as given at night. In the current paper techniques will be discussed to enable above projectile trajectory measurements under daylight conditions. With this a new system setup under given hardware limitations is derived and described. Experimental results for measurements under daylight conditions will be presented.
