As part of a Space Act Agreement between NASA-KSC and TARDEC, an electro-optical system to detect ice and estimate ice thickness on the external tank of the space shuttle was tested in TARDEC's Visual Perception Lab.
This working paper and progress report has been prepared as part of a National Aeronautics Space Agency (NASA)-Kennedy Space Center (KSC), Florida/U.S. Army Tank Automotive Research, Development & Engineering Center (TARDEC) Warren, Michigan Space Act Agreement (SAA) signed on 21 January 2004. This mutually-beneficial collaborative research investigation is being accomplished under the terms of a Statement of Work (SOW) entitled: "Ice/Frost Detection and Evaluation" jointly signed in March 2004 by ...
Detection of potential threats that are camouflaged or concealed is important not only for military acquisition problems but, also for crowd surveillance as well as tactical use such as on border patrols. Imaging and display technologies that take advantage of photo-simulation and sensor fusion are discussed in this paper. A comparison of the detection rates of visible, infrared (IR) and sensor-fused imagery of scenes that contain a Rocket Propelled Grenade ...
