Prototype Automatic Target Screener.
Abstract
The program objective is to produce a design for an automatic target screener. The screener will reduce the task loading on the thermal imager operator by detecting and recognizing a limited set of high-priority targets at ranges comparable to or greater than those for an unassisted observer. A second objective is to provide enhancement of the video presentation to the operator. The image enhancement includes: (1) automatic gain/brightness control to relieve the operator of the necessity to continually adjust the display gain and brightness controls and (2) DC restoration to eliminate artifacts resulting from ac coupling of the infrared (IR) detectors. This report consists of five sections. Sectin II describes the hardware status and design. Section III presents the software status. Section IV provides the plans for next reporting period and Section V the revised schedule information.
