Abstract

Optoelectronic apparatus (2) for assisting an operator in determining the shooting attitude to give to a hand-held grenade launcher (1) so as to strike a target (k) and configured to measure a pointing attitude of the target (k); measure the distance (Disttarget ) of the target (k); determine the position of the target (k); determine a shooting pitch angle (αfpitch) and shooting heading angle (αfhead); measure the pitch angle (αpitch(ti)) and the heading angle (αheading(ti) ) indicative of the attitude given to the grenade launcher 1 by the operator; compute a pitch difference (Δαpitch(ti) ) and a heading difference in (Δαhead(ti)); communicate to the operator the pitch variation and/or the heading variation that an operator must give to the grenade launcher so that the pitch difference (Δαpitch(ti) ) and/or heading difference ( Δαhead( ti ) ), respectively, is zero.
