Title: Method for simulating the danger posed by hand grenades or mines to participants in a military exercise
Inventor: DEINLEIN RUDOLF
IPC: F41G3/26
Filed: 1999-01-08
Abstract: The device relates to a method for simulating the danger posed by mines or hand grenades to one or several participants in a military exercise. At least one weaponry simulator (KSIM) simulating a mine or a hand grenade and the sensor devices (HGRM-S) allocated to the individual participants are used and the effect of mines or hand grenades is simulated by transmitting data between the weaponry simulator (KSIM) and the sensor devices of the participants (HGRM-S). Data is transmitted by two-way radio communication between the weaponry simulator (KSIM) and the sensor devices of the individual participants (HGRM-S). Radio transmission from the individual sensor devices of the participants (HGRM-S) to the weaponry simulator (KSIM) is carried out in the near field zone of the transmitting and receiving antennae involved. Said transmission serves to confine the effective area of the mines or hand grenades while the radio transmission from the weaponry simulator (KSIM) to the sensor devices of the individual participants (HGRM-S) serves to confirm or verify that the mines or hand grenades have hit a target.

The image is translated such that the centroid of the image and the centroid of the same portion of a reference image approximately coincide. The value associated with each pixel is one of a hue and an intensity. The reference image to a subsequent image in the video data stream can be updated. A method for stabilizing an image in a video data stream comprises dividing the image into at least two regions; calculating a centroid of each region of the image, and transforming the image so that the centroids of the image and the centroids of a reference image approximately coincide. The centroid consists of a weighted average of a value associated with each pixel of the region as a function of the pixel's position in the region.
