A system concept for remote measurement of vehicle orientation with only passive devices mounted on a vehicle is presented. Three channels of polarization-modulated light are used to determine all three degrees of freedom of vehicle-orientation. Two important system components are described, a polarization rotator and a retroreflector which leaves the polarization state invariant. Also the method of data reduction is outlined and the system accuracy is discussed.
