Real Time 3-D Modeling and Immersive Visualization for Enhanced Soldier Situation Awareness
SBC: Carnegie Robotics LLC Topic: A12aT003We propose a rapid mapping and 3-D visualization system especially suited for inside buildings, tunnels, urban canyons, and other environments where GPS may be poor or not available. The system--which was fully demonstrated in our Phase I effort-- includes mobile Sensor Nodes that wirelessly supply compressed 3D range data and color imagery to a central Fusion Node. The Fusion Node runs 3D recon ...
