Optical boresignting is process to align optical axis of single system or  a series of optical or electro-optical systems with a certain reference optical axis or mechanical axis. The JT series test systems are specialized test systems manufactured by Inframet optimized for task of boresighting, focusing and optionally some basic testing of the multi-sensor surveillance systems.

The multi-sensor surveillance systems in its basic form is built from the following components: stabilized platform, thermal imager, color TV camera. However,  advanced multi-sensor surveillance systems are built from more components like: stabilized platform, thermal imager, color TV camera, monochromatic TV (CCD or CMOS) camera, low light level LLLTV camera (ICCD, EM CCD),  laser range finder, laser pointer, laser illuminator.

All the sensors  must be in proper alignment to assure proper performance of overall multi-sensor system.  This means optical axis of all the imaging and non-imaging sensors showed be  parallel to each other and to reference mechanical axis.  Deviations from the proper alignment must be corrected. 

The consequences of  using badly aligned electro-optical systems can be very serious.
