A scene imaging system (SIS) for providing an enhanced image with embedded symbology. The SIS includes an image sensor assembly for receiving a real-world image and providing a sensed image containing raw image sensor assembly data. An image processing system receives and processes the sensed image and manufacturing tolerance/aircraft installation information. The image processing system provides an image processing system output containing a sensed image with embedded symbology. A database maintains the manufacturing tolerance/aircraft installation information. An output interface element is operatively connected to the image processing system for receiving the processor output for use by a computer for a display. The embedded symbology in the sensed image is used 1) in a monitoring mode to detect frozen, flipped or misaligned SIS images in a continuous real-time manner, 2) in an alignment mode to align the SIS to ensure that the sensed image is conformal to the operator's field of view; and, 3) provide electronic boresighting of the sensed image when the camera is replaced. |
