Video Analysis for Nighttime Surveillance and Situational Awareness
SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC. Topic: N/ARecent events in both Iraq and Afghanistan have demonstrated the need for credible and timely situational awareness on the ground. Of key importance is the ability to locate specific individuals of interest and to quickly provide that information to central command so that appropriate action can be taken. An automated video-based surveillance system for covert monitoring of a small area of interes ...
