  • Nighttime Surveillance System
  • PercepTek and computer vision group at the University of Central Florida are working closely with the Robotic Systems Branch within the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center San Diego (SSC). SSC’s immediate surveillance goal is to perform broad area surveillance of their and similar sites. Toward this end, they are in the process of installing surveillance sensor and computing pods throughout their facility. However, SSC is in need of additional automated surveillance technology. In particular, SSC has indicated that elusive behavior is the single greatest indicator of a threat and is therefore eager to integrate and evaluate the algorithms determining if there is potentially an object in the scene trying to elude detection. We will also be working closely with American Monitoring Services (AMS), a commercial manual video surveillance company. AMS is interested in evaluating the feasibility of incorporating the technology for the elusive behavior detection  into their existing commercial systems.
