RPAS acquired full motion video analysis and anomaly detection

This research project will investigate how modern Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (also referred to as RPAS, drones, UAVs or UASs) can optimize surveillance missions and target characterization through the integration of Full Motion Video (FMV) cameras. FMV data will be processed and analyzed including the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms. The large amount of data which results from such surveillance missions must be analyzed via semi-automatic and automatic methods, as manual analysis is neither fast enough nor economical. The processed target information will be dissemination through 4D visualizations systems which will be interactive, immersive and oriented towards decision making.
