The invention relates to improvements in airborne, marine, and/or moving vehicle-carried, stabilized high resolution long-range surveillance systems, which are based on a stabilized platform, TV cameras and a lens with a relatively long focal length. The improvement overcomes almost absolutely the problems due to residual remaining vibrations that are inherent in the stabilized platform. The system comprises mechanical stabilizing structure adapted to reduce vibrations and especially to eliminate or at least drastically reduce high frequency vibrations, a TV sensor, optionally including or coupled in intensifying electro-optical imaging structure, an optical lens and exposure control structure so as to record the image on the sensor for a period of time which is much shorter than the usual television frame time.

A real time reconnaisance (surveillance) system adapted to be mounted on a moving aerial, ground or marine platform which provides very high resolution and high quality imaging, said system comprising in combination: means for substantially eliminating or drastically reducing high frequency vibrations at frequencies higher than about the 30 to 40 Hz range, to a level of less than about 10 m300 mm; exposure control means adapted to record or expose the target image on the said sensor for a period of time substantially shorter than the conventional frame time of the said sensors.
