Current Status of the DNA Remote Security Station (RSS)

Abstract

The Remote Security Station (RSS) is being developed by Sandia National Laboratories for the Defense Nuclear Agency to investigate issues pertaining to robotics and sensor fusion in physical security systems. This report documents the current status of the RSS program as of October 1990. The RSS system consists of the Man Portable Security Station (MaPSS) and the Telemanaged Mobile Security Station (TMSS) which are integrated by the Operator's Control Unit (OCU) into a flexible exterior perimeter security system. The RSS system uses optical, infrared, microwave and acoustic intrusion detection sensors in conjunction with sensor fusion techniques to increase the probability of detection and decrease the nuisance alarm rate of the system. The program is entering its final year of exploratory development. The major effort during this final year will be to explore a neural network solution to the sensor fusion task.
