GROUP: Computer Vision for Aerial Applications (3477)
underline
 
The Computer Vision for Aerial Applications Group conducts research and development of algorithms and software for automatically interpreting data from down-looking imaging sensors in any region of the spectrum. This includes:

  • Spaceflight implementation of 3D perception, position estimation, motion estimation, terrain analysis, and science imagery analysis on landers and orbiters.
  • Autonomous navigation of unmanned air vehicles, object recognition, and geo-rectification of video reconnaissance for terrestrial applications.
  • Automated 3D model generation from 2D images for use in terrain-relative navigation, image registration/rectification, and image exploitation.
