In this paper we explore the geometry of a particular navigation scheme which guides a pursuer from a fixed initial position to a given fixed final position using a one-step look ahead strategy and using only bearing measurements. We explicitly characterize the optimal trajectories for the problem in terms of the Cramer-Rao bound such that the derived trajectories permit a minimization in the error of an unbiased estimate of the target position.
