Ordnance Impact Scoring System
Our video-based ordnance system is proving itself to be reliable and accurate.
Our video-based ordnance impact scoring system, Hawk-i delivers superior accuracy.
The System consists of a number of high-performance sensors mounted on towers around an air weapons range. Each sensor node comprises a series of high resolution video cameras, wireless communications links, and because of their remote locations, remote power units that are charged by a bank of solar panels at each site.
Hawk-i can score any number of targets within a weapons range. The cameras are set up so that when an aircraft bombs a target, the system captures the image and, via triangulation, the software is able to calculate where the bomb hits.
The normal scenario would see the Range Safety Officer then radio immediately to the training pilot the accuracy of the hit relative to the target.

Our system is in use by the Royal Australian Air Force.
