This paper introduces a generic architecture for the fusion of perceptual processes and its application in real-time object tracking. In this architecture, the well known anchoring approach is, by integrating techniques from information fusion, extended to multi-modal anchoring so as to be applicable in a multi-process environment. The system architecture is designed to be applicable in a generic way, independent of specific application domains and of the characteristics of the underlying sensory processes. It is shown that, by combining multiple independent video-based detection methods, the generic multi-modal anchoring approach can be successfully employed for real-time person tracking in difficult environments.
We present the 3D-imaging of a target using range gated laser systems operating at 1.5 μm. Two different illumination techniques were investigated: 1) a conventional illumination technique consisting of a Raman-shift...

An existing facility for data acquisition in aerial surveys is presented. It contains a laser radar, an infrared camera and a video camera. The system supports synchronisation of sensor data, even when the sensor does not inherently offer that feature. This allows data from different sensors to be merged and processed together. The necessary temporal referencing is achieved by specialised hardware implemented in a field programmable gate array, which also serves to acquire data from the IR camera. The usefulness of FPGAs for this purpose is demonstrated. The possibilities FPGAs offer are shown up, and future extension of the system are presented.

The demand for the prevention of collateral damages in military operations requires methods of robust automatic identification of targets like vehicles especially during target approach. This requires the development of sophisticated techniques for automatic and semi-automatic interpretation of sensor data. In particular, the pre-analysis of reconnaissance data is important for the human observers as well as for autonomous systems. A concept of generating a precise and up-to-date 3D model of a target will be proposed. The model is created from nearterm laser range and infrared data gathered by reconnaissance in advance. It consists of the visible part of the object surface textured with measured infrared values. The model is evaluated by generating 2D templates for a correlation-based tracking system in an infrared image sequence of a complex scenario.
