Abstract
This paper describes an approach to automated testing of pulsed laser beam parameters. The test system which was developed is capable of fully characterizing laser beam quality and aimpoint. Hard copy data is provided, and no operator judgement or adjustments are required. The test system was developed by the U.S. Army's Missile Command at Redstone Arsenal. The system was redesigned and productized for production testing by Hughes Aircraft's Electro Optical and Data Systems Group in Los Angeles, California.
