FMV
Continuous streaming video from a sensor, as opposed to still frames, used for tracking and identifying moving targets. FMV is a primary product of EO/IR and airborne ISR sensors. Full-motion video lets an operator track and identify a moving target continuously rather than from stills; it is the primary EO/IR product feeding real-time decisions.
