Remote Minefield Detection System (REMIDS) Real-Time Processing Architecture Study

Abstract

A heterogeneous multi-processor system is to be integrated for real time implementation of a multi-modal image processing algorithm for mine field detection. Available off-the-shelf multi-processor systems, including the AISI 5000, Datacube Max-Video Boards, Transputers, Hypercubes, ITI Series 150, AMT DAP510 and multiple 680020 CPUs, were considered for implementation of various parts of the algorithms. The alternatives were evaluated using performance, cost, and support criteria. A system combining Datacube Max-Video Boards and Transputers is recommended. Keywords: Infrared detectors; REMIDS(Remote Minefield Detection System).
