Abstract

A method of digitally boresighting includes finding a laser spot in a field of view of an imaging device that has an optical center, wherein the laser spot is generated by a laser, determining an offset vector between the laser spot in the field of view and the optical center, and correcting for boresight misalignment of the laser and imaging device in the image on a display using the offset vector.
