Interactive transector device commercial and military grade

A transector system for tracking and neutralizing a designated target body, including:

• sensing means for sensing signals associated with any body within the range of the system and producing an output signal characteristic of that body;
• central computer means including signal processing means coupled to said sensing means and responsive to said output signal to digitize and store the same;
• said computer means including, in addition, repertoire storage means and comparator means;
• said repertoire storage means having stored therein digitized signals representing the signals emanating from the target body;
• said comparator means being coupled to said sensing means and to said repertoire storage means for comparing output signals from said sensing means with said stored digitized signals in said repertoire storage means and for producing a lock-on output signal when said output signal from said sensing means corresponds to said digitized signal representing said target body;
• said signal processing means including means to determine the range, azimuth and elevation of each body, the signals from which are being sensed, and, in particular, producing a digital location signal representative of the location of the target body when the lock-on signal occurs;
• projectile means including a projectile computer, said projectile computer having projectile signal-processing means and volatile storage means therein;
• said volatile storage means being coupled, before launch of said projectile, to said signal processing means for updating said projectile computer with the latest digitized target body location signal;
• said projectile computer including an expert program for controlling said projectile signal-processing means and for controlling the flight of said projectile.
