An autonomous weapon system including weapon and weapon mounting system operable to point the weapon in accordance with input control signals. In step S11, the differential value between a normalization coefficient Bi to be encoded and a normalization coefficient Bi-1 for an encoding unit Ai-1 in a band adjacent to the lower side of an encoding unit Ai corresponding to the normalization coefficient Bi is computed. A fin hardmask and lithography stack is deposited on the high-k dielectric. The sensor controlling unit then transmits the values sensed by the magneto-inductive sensor to the central processing unit.
