Orthophoto Classification for UGV Path Planning using Heterogeneous Computing

Abstract

We have developed a system that uses aerial imagery for improving unmanned ground vehicle navigation capabilities. The current article focuses on the viability of using heterogeneous computing architecture for improving system performance in terms of energy consumption and area analysed per second

Object Detection and Fuzzy-Based Classification Using UAV Data

“…It uses an autonomous system (Gageik, Nils, Michael Strohmeier, 2010) with an optical flow sensor for positioning and navigation for the surveillance of ground objects. The UAV equipped with remote sensing devices (Habib, Durdana, Habibullah Jamal, 2013;Hudjakov, Robert, 2013) can now acquire spatial data relevant to land coverage etc. Further this data is used for modeling and analytic processes.…”
