(Physics), 1952, Wayne State
University. Recently participat-
ed in an investigation of coher-
ent optical techniques for photo-
graphic point-transfer opera-
tions. Responsible for experi-
mental evaluation of optical
correlator configurations, including the instrumentation
used for quantitative measurements of correlator per-
formance; analysis of problems of photographic density
and contrast modulation; investigation of techniques for
deriving electronic error signals from optical correlators
for detecting image misalignment and image distortion.
Previously participated in development of automated
analytical stereoplotter; studied optical spatial filtering
as applied to photo interpretation and image analysis
and basic mathematical concepts involved in correlation;
did preliminary designs of a statistical stability monitor
and a general-purpose correlation computer.

(Physics), 1942, Trinity College.
Currently investigating the appli-
cation of coherent optical de-
vices and techniques to photo-
intelligence and mapping opera-
adi tions, including designing experi-
ments to test and demonstrate
the feasibility of potentially useful techniques and the
preparation of preliminary designs of image data process-
ing systems which use coherent optical techniques. Re-
cently directed an investigation of techniques for optical
point transfer, entailing matching of conjugate imagery
on aerial stereo photographs, using coherent optical cor-
relation with spatial filtering, as well as Fourier trans-
form holograms and Fresnel holograms; also investigated
optical methods for correcting optical image distortion.
Previous assignments have included directing a Bendix-
sponsored program in optical range correlation guidance
and other applications of electro-optical devices and a
study of the problems of hypersonic intercept; design
and development of various guidance systems.
