Center for Advanced Sensors Year Two Funding (FY2006)

The Center for Advanced Sensors presents the research results for the second year of effort. Research is reported on networked sensors, modeling performance for sensors with image fusion, THz imager modeling, ISR sensor performance requirements and mammalian vision. The Annual Program Plan goals and objectives were met. Milestones included: (1) building an ontology-based sensor network prototype environment, (2) modeling sensor fusion through image quality metrics, (3) incorporating image processing enhancements in ISR sensor models, (4) characterizing LCD monitors, (5) established the spatial and temporal resolution requirements for tracking targets with ISR sensors (6) characterized different techniques for infrared signature reduction, and (7) researched natural visual sensory representations for neural assemblies.
