Herc SAR Task 112: AIMSsim Visual Target Identification Cues

Abstract

CAE Professional Services added a visual cuing capability to the search and rescue Advanced Integrated Multi-sensing Surveillance (AIMS) simulation s sensor displays, as a first step towards the simulation of automated target detection in the AIMSsim. This visual cuing capability will be used in future Defence R&D Canada Toronto investigations of human factors issues with automated target detection algorithms. Three types of cues were added: bounding box, image overlay, and inverted color in such a way that the new functionality could be integrated to the main development branch of the system and support extendibility. In addition, CAE Professional Services examined how Defence R&D Canada Toronto incorporated a third-party mosaicing library to AIMSsim in the fall of 2006. Recommendations for properly completing the integration of the mosaicing library into AIMSsim were made.
