Abstract

A prototype image processing system has recently been developed which generates, displays and analyzes three-dimensional ladar data in real-time. It is based upon a suite of novel algorithms that transform raw ladar data into cleaned 3-D images. These algorithms perform noise reduction, ground plane identification, detector response, deconvolution and illumination pattern renormalization. The system also discriminates static from dynamic objects in a scene. In order to achieve real-time throughput, we have parallelized these algorithms on a Linux cluster. We demonstrate that multiprocessor software plus Blade hardware result in a compact, real-time imagery generation adjunct to an operating ladar. Finally, we discuss interesting directions for future work like automatic recognition of moving people and real-time reconnaissance from mobile platforms. Such enhancements of our prototype imaging system can lead to multiple military and civilian applications of national importance
实时三维雷达成像
最近开发了一个原型图像处理系统,可以实时生成、显示和分析三维雷达数据。它基于一套新颖的算法,将原始雷达数据转换为经过清理的三维图像。这些算法执行降噪,地平面识别,检测器响应,反卷积和照明模式重整化。该系统还能区分场景中的静态和动态物体。为了实现实时吞吐量,我们在Linux集群上并行化了这些算法。我们证明了多处理器软件加上Blade硬件可以为操作雷达提供紧凑的实时图像生成辅助设备。最后,我们讨论了未来工作的有趣方向,如移动平台上的移动人员自动识别和实时侦察。我们的原型成像系统的这种增强可以导致具有国家重要性的多种军事和民用应用
