  1. Endeavors in Research: Past, Present and Future Michael D. Vaughan Imaging, Robotics & Intelligent Systems Laboratory University of Tennessee 2 January 2020

  2. Outline • Past • Super Resolution and Mosaicking • Motion Control • Present • Visual Monitoring for Object Discovery • Future • Distributed Monitoring and Control Systems • Robust Object Tracking for Enhanced Security of Large Facilities • Analysis of Salient Image Artifacts for Enhanced Data Understanding and Decision Planning

  3. Super Resolution and Mosaicking Problems with data being unusable in some places resulting in incomplete reconstructions Blurring in some of the fine details

  4. Motion Control • Address issues with Ranger system • Larger work space • Designed for motion control • Accurate at higher speeds

  5. Outline • Past • Super Resolution and Mosaicking • Motion Control • Present • Visual Monitoring for Object Discovery • Future • Distributed Monitoring and Control Systems • Robust Object Tracking for Enhanced Security of Large Facilities • Analysis of Salient Image Artifacts for Enhanced Data Understanding and Decision Planning

  6. Visual Monitoring for Object Discovery

  7. Visual Monitoring for Object Discovery • Implemented in OpenCV • Now able to capture video sequences

  8. Outline • Past • Super Resolution and Mosaicking • Motion Control • Present • Visual Monitoring for Object Discovery • Future • Distributed Monitoring and Control Systems • Robust Object Tracking for Enhanced Security of Large Facilities • Analysis of Salient Image Artifacts for Enhanced Data Understanding and Decision Planning

  9. Distributed Monitoring and Control Systems • SMRT

  10. Robust Object Tracking for Enhanced Security of Large Facilities • Coordinated monitoring of assets, traffic flow, inventory, risk, etc.

  11. Analysis of Salient Image Artifacts for Enhanced Data Understanding and Decision Planning • Connotation of the word ‘artifact’ • In technical aspects, considered a bad thing • Distortion • Miscalculation • In other fields, an artifact is a good thing • An object of great power in role-playing games • A man-made object which gives insight into their culture • Perhaps there are useful artifacts in images • More information about a scene than first noticed • Gain greater understanding

  12. Analysis of Salient Image Artifacts for Enhanced Data Understanding and Decision Planning • Some such algorithms already exist • Fourier Transform • Wavelet Transform • Hough Transform • Others use data in an image with undesirable information in order to enhance the image • PSF estimation • Noise estimation • Perhaps more can be done to extract useful data from what is usually ignored
