Sensor Fusion Dr. Lang Hong Sponsors: AFRL, DARPA Doing automatic target recognition and tracking (previous page) on the battlefield often involves dealing with multiple targets in various locations. Variables such as foliage, weather, range, and terrain can often degrade a particular sensor. In this research, Dr. Hong is focusing on fusing together multiple sensors from a variety of sources in a coherent and integrated way. The goal is to provide enhanced target identification and assessment in situations where individual sensors may be degraded. The use of sensor fusion can substantially reduce the impact of many variables on our ability to identify, track, and assess targets. |
