Abstract

In the Tank Automotive Research Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC) Phase II SBIR “Autonomy and Visualization Enhancement for Situational Awareness” (AVESA) program, Robotic Research, LLC has developed a camera-based intelligence and reconnaissance tool to address the needs of warfighters on the battlefield. The RR-Flashback system developed under this program provides a hardware and software solution that captures, time tags, and geo-references panoramic imagery, along with a spatiotemporal imagery database for use in mission planning, intelligence analysis, and detecting changes in the environment.
