Autonomous Tracking System (ATS) EDSGN 100, Section 002, Group 8 Pat Vander Neut, Cris Henderson, Dan Weinman, Allen Black, Christian Dorflinger
The Problem • Difficulty spotting hazardous objects and obstacles in Military convoys (blackout conditions) • Sensor system capable of: • Detecting position, distance, and formation of convoy • Detecting hazards in route and notifying drivers The Need
Mission • Detect hazards • Notify drivers of road conditions • Allow time to react • Maintain formation of convoy • Efficiency • Durability • Accuracy
AESA Sensors • Active Electronically Scanned Array • New, developed for Air Force and naval Use • Innovations in: • detection • targeting • tracking • self-protection capabilities
Advantages of AESA • Detection through numerous small transmit/receive (T/R) modules • Short to instantaneous (millisecond) scanning rates • Low probability of intercept • Several Detection modes- allows detection of Specific objects/surfaces • Energy efficient
Maintaining Formation • Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) system • IR emitters tuned to night-vision wavelengths • Can only be detected using same wavelength • Determines position of Humvees in convoy • Range: up to 8km
Driver Notification • Interactive notification screen • Voice warnings • Flash warnings • User-friendly monitor • Keep track of: • Position • Hazards • Speed • Direction
25.0m +1.50km/h Lead Humvee 50.0km/h 0.0km/h 25.0km/h
The End • Thank You For Listening • Special Thanks To: • Xinli Wu • BAE Systems • And yes, it is dumpling maker compatible
