Automatic Laser Glare Suppression in Electro-Optical Sensors

Progress in laser technology has led to very compact but nevertheless powerful laser sources.In the visible and near infrared spectral region, lasers of any wavelength can be purchased.Continuous wave laser sources pose an especially serious threat to the human eye and electro-optical sensors due to their high proliferation and easy availability.Th

A New Coverage Flight Path Planning Algorithm Based on Footprint Sweep Fitting for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Navigation in Urban Environments

This paper presents a new coverage flight path planning algorithm that finds collision-free, minimum length and flyable paths for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) navigation in three-dimensional (3D) urban environments with fixed obstacles for coverage missions.The proposed algorithm significantly reduces computational time, number of turns, and path
