F-18 Stereo Vision Data collection - FY18
Project Description
Integration onto an F-18 of JPL's collaborative stereo technology for robust passive (vision based) terrain relative navigation based on two non-static cameras. Primary Technical Hurdles:#• Accurate time synchronization of distributed stereo system#• Real-time camera to camera pose estimation and on-board map construction#• Vibration and motion blur analysis for low altitude flight with wing-tip systems
