  • Abstract
    A number of future space missions will require autonomous rendezvous and docking of spacecraft. Recent work in video guidance shows that a video approach has great promise for solving problems in close-in operations, especially where operation with multiple target spacecraft is required. A video guidance system can be built with existing processor and sensor technology. This paper presents approaches and design constraints for such a system.
