Research abstract
SoarTech, Voxel51, and SME Mr. Brent Thornhill propose ForwardObserver, an on-board assistant designed to adapt sensor data processing and output products to current tasking, situational context, and transmission limitations. With the help of former sensor operator and instructor, Mr. Brent Thornhill, we will explore the range of tasks conducted by sensor operators and assess the information requirements to conduct those tasks. Voxel51 and SoarTech bring innovative motion imagery processing approaches to support these information requirements. We will develop an integrated design for sending supporting information to a user that adapts to the current tasking and environment.
