It is grounded on an innovative semi-incoherent optical correlator architecture. Angular coding of the template pixels determines the operation of this optical CNN implementation, therefore it is real time and flexibly programmable. We have demonstrated its feasibility and operation by an experimental setup. Our correlator architecture makes it possible to execute algorithms real time, which cannot be done by any other existing optical correlator so far. Our architecture unifies the advantages of coherent and incoherent optical correlators, provides a more robust frame and avoids their main hindrances. In the POAC framework the resulting correlogram is measured by a programmable adaptive sensor array, a special visual CNN-UM chip. So, local parallel programs fulfill both the necessary pre and post processing with the required adaptive thresholding. However, because of the limited resolution of available visual CNN chips (28/spl times/28), all-optical optical pre- and post-processing will be used, as well.","PeriodicalId":387716,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2002 7th IEEE International Workshop on Cellular Neural Networks and Their Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123081869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is currently a desire to develop a sensor/control suite that will allow such UAVs to fly through complex environments, such as in an \"urban canyon\" or underneath a forest canopy, at altitudes of just meters above the ground. The development of such capabilities requires new approaches for perceiving the environment. There is an increasing interest in borrowing ideas from flying animals such as insects, which are able to fly through such environments with high reliability. This has led to the development of optical flow sensing techniques that currently are able to provide such capabilities as altitude control and terrain following. However, more difficult tasks such as flying in the urban canyon or in a forest require advances in image processing that allow obstacles to be reliably detected by a machine vision package weighing tens of grams, including all optics, hardware, and software. A blueprint for such a visual sensor is proposed that makes use of anticipated developments in microelectronic technology. With disciplined \"best engineering practices\", cellular nonlinear network techniques can make significant contributions to the development of such sensors.","PeriodicalId":387716,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2002 7th IEEE International Workshop on Cellular Neural Networks and Their Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124640690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For example, vehicles driving without human guidance need robust prediction of potential obstacles, like other vehicles or pedestrians. Most common approaches of obstacle detection so far have used analytical and statistical methods like motion estimation or generation of maps. The proposed procedures are mostly composed of many processing steps, so that error propagation of successive steps often leads to inaccurate results. Another problem is the necessity of high computing power for real time applications. In this contribution we demonstrate that obstacle detection in planar worlds can be performed efficiently using cellular neural networks. Beside a fast processing speed the proposed method is also very robust.","PeriodicalId":387716,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2002 7th IEEE International Workshop on Cellular Neural Networks and Their Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123959633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
