Abstract: Recent developments in the field of multiple view geometry have enabled techniques for recovering structure and motion of a target from a moving platform. These techniques can be adapted to solve the passive optical ranging problem without constraints or assumptions imposed by alternate approaches. Furthermore, the acquisition cost of a single camera solution will be better for all life cycle phases than for a multi-camera solution.
Benefits: In addition to commercial applications of the technology directly for the sponsor, we will transition the technology to our Maveric SUAS, which is involved or competing in multiple funded acquisition programs for the Navy and other armed forces branches.
