Threat and Battlefield Damage Assessment Using 3D Imaging and Sensor Fusion

Abstract

The proposed technology is a three dimensional (3D) and sensor fusion display for threat and battlefield damage assessment (BDA). The 3D auto-stereoscopic display is implemented for Homeland defense applications in combination with an X-ray scanner that will bring attention to packages with potential threats. Sensor fusion will benefit BDA by providing fused visible and infrared (IR) images of combat vehicles that have been damaged or destroyed on the battlefield.
