Abstract :
True EO instruments have existed for a long time in the commercial world. For several years the development of off-the-shelf instruments for military applications has been a theme discussed by a number of parties. At Autotestcon ´95 three papers addressed this topic. Work in this area has continued since then, and this paper will review progress and lessons learned Topics to be discussed are: characteristics of a true E-O instrument; current systems for commercial and military applications; some experiences and lessons learned; and directions for the future
