Autonomous Multi-Target Tracking System for UAVs ID: 2015-035

An innovative tracking system capable of autonomously tracking multiple targets from UAVs in real-time.

Technology Overview

This novel invention introduces a multiple target tracking system designed for video captured from both stationary and moving platforms, notably unmanned air vehicles (UAVs). It autonomously initializes, updates, and deletes tracks for multiple targets, managing diverse target dynamics efficiently in real-time. The system integrates advanced Bayesian filtering for accurate state estimation and track management, alongside homography-based image registration for enhanced tracking of both moving and stationary targets, even when the camera platform is in motion.

Key Advantages

• Robust tracking capability in cluttered environments
• Efficient tracking of both moving and stationary targets
• Real-time operation suitable for dynamic scenarios
• Homography-based image registration for improved accuracy

Problems Addressed

• Difficulty in tracking multiple targets simultaneously in dynamic environments
• Challenges in maintaining track of stationary targets when the camera platform is moving
• Inefficiency in real-time processing and track management
• Complications in tracking over diverse target dynamics, from highly maneuverable to stationary

Market Applications

• Surveillance and monitoring with UAVs in civilian and defense sectors
• Integration with static security cameras for enhanced surveillance
• Use in pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) camera systems for dynamic scene monitoring
• Applications in tracking and analyzing pedestrian or vehicle movement in various environments
