Augmented vision: Fusing radars and cameras for improved situational awareness - Story
January 19, 2018
The advent of augmented reality (AR) systems is no longer the reserve of fighter pilots with heads-up displays and soldiers with wearable AR goggles; AR is now being used in military surveillance systems as well. Superimposing context-dependent graphical information as an overlay to camera video can aid in the interpretation of a complex surveillance situation, enabling a faster response to threats, clarity of decision-making, and improved situational awareness.

Radar processing for naval upgrades: Software architecture is key to flexibility - Story
January 18, 2017
Advances in naval radar capabilities need to be matched with flexible software architectures that can exploit the radar sensor to identify threats and provide robust software solutions, including multihypothesis, multimodel tracking, that can evolve over extended military program life cycles.

Fusing video and radar tracks in multisensor military security - Story
January 29, 2014
Effective fusion of multiple sensors such as radar video and cameras is the key to presenting a situational display in military security applications that successfully informs the operator and supports critical decision-making. However, while track display with track fusion offers the benefits of simplifying the display presentation based on an assessment of threat, this approach is only as effective as the rules used to process, filter, and select the information. Complementing the processed display with the ability to show primary sensor data allows for simplified presentation of complex information where there is confidence in the data interpretation, while still permitting the operator to observe raw sensor data for manual interpretation, verification, or simply reassurance.

Streaming real-time video with CPUs/GPUs - Story
October 12, 2011
The distribution of sensor data to multiple console displays can be achieved using standard Ethernet networking and off-the-shelf 3D gaming CPU/GPU hardware to support software-based decompression and display composition. This reduces the dependency on proprietary hardware technologies for video processing and display systems.

Real-time image compositing: Software displaces hardware for radar displays - Story
July 08, 2008
Historically handled by specialist hardware, the display of real-time radar video with multi-layer graphics is now solved with high-performance COTS software processing and graphics platforms. Fusing multicore computing platforms with high-performance graphics chips provides enhanced performance, lower costs, and easier maintenance through common hardware components.
