Navigation and Reconnaissance
Jay Silver Kevin WortmanAdvised by Bill Ross
Group 99
Vision-aided Navigation for Off-road RoboticsACC Testbed development and DARPA FCS-PerceptOR program
Reconnaissance: Remote vision & monitoring, interactive map/video, and 3D modeling
Navigation: Collision avoidance and improved position estimation
• Reconnaissance and navigation on limited payload platforms (UGV, UAV, etc.)
• Autonomous systems to support Future Combat Systems (DARPA TTO, PerceptOR)
Vision systems for time-to-goal/bandwidth-constrained collision avoidance
in unstructured outdoor environments (example: lightly wooded scenarios)
All-terrain robotic vehicle (Ruggedized, 2 meter/sec)
Digital fisheye video (180 fisheye,12bit, 60fps, Megapixel)
6-DOF IMU (134 Hz, 3 gyros + 3 accelerometers)
Wireless ethernet (802.11 standard)
Onboard compute (2 Pentium IIIs)
Offboard processing (Dual Pentium IV)
Robotic Testbed (ACC - 9332)

Space Variant Resolutions
Resolution function is the integral of the angular shift w.r.t. eccentricity
Approximate with sum and find a least squares best fit polynomial

Space Variant ResolutionsEqual shifts along the radius of expansion for objects with equal range.
Boundary tracking is simplified.
