Abstract:

One embodiment includes an artificial vision system mounted on a platform. The system includes an image system comprising a video source that is configured to capture a plurality of sequential images. The image system also includes an image processing system configured, via at least one processor, to process the plurality of sequential images to calculate situational awareness (SA) data with respect to each of the plurality of sequential images and to convert the processed plurality of sequential images to visible images. The system further includes a video display system configured to display the visible images associated with the processed plurality of sequential images and to visibly identify the SA data relative to the platform.
