ViaSat Proprietary Information

|Typical UAV System

ViaSat Proprietary Information

1. UAV captures video of ground in real time

2. Data transmitted via airborne modem3. Data passes through 10 mb/s data link4. Video received through ground modem

and viewed

|Motivation: Pen or Marker?

ViaSat Proprietary Information

Problem:Detecting small features

in video is difficult.

Resolution: Use high resolution still

images to create simulated video.

| Comparing Video and Still Images

Spatial versus Temporal Resolution

HD Video 1920x1080 = 2 Mp per frame. 3.2

pixel/inch Still Images

4743 x 3162 = 15 Mp per frame. 7.9 pixel/inch

Zooming into video for visual feature detection

Synchronization between video and image windows

|Current Limitations and Future Steps

ViaSat Proprietary Information

10

Increase robustness of stitching algorithm

Increase accuracy of time relation between video feed and image viewer

Optimize CPU consumption throughout system

|What We Learned
