Real-time target tracking system and method in airborne photoelectric platform

Abstract

The invention provides a real-time target tracking system and method in an airborne photoelectric platform, and belongs to the technical field of intelligent video processing. The system comprises animage collecting module, an image decoding module, a data communication module and a target tracking module. The image collecting module is responsible for collecting visible light image data and infrared image data and inputting the infrared image data and the visible light image data into an image caching module after collection is completed. The data communication module is responsible for transmission of instruction information and image information between the data communication module and a DSP chip and the communication between an upper computer and a rear end servo control system. Thetarget tracking module receives instructions from the upper computer, reads the cached infrared image data and visible light image data, outputs a corresponding processing result (target direction information), and finally transmitting the target position information to the rear end servo control system. The system is easy to obtain, can instantly conduct real-time target tracking processing in the airborne photoelectric platform after images are collected, is high in precision and stability and low in output delay, and can replace manual work for implementing the intelligent control over a servo system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of intelligent video processing, in particular to a real-time target tracking system and method in an airborne photoelectric platform. Background technique [0002] Target tracking refers to the task of giving the position of the target in a certain frame of the video, and then the algorithm continuously calculates the target position in the subsequent frames. Object tracking technology has a wide range of application scenarios. In the modern airborne electro-optical platform, the target tracking system plays an important role. The traditional airborne optoelectronic platform does not have a target tracking system, and the movement of the optoelectronic pod is manually controlled to track the target and continuously observe the target. In the modern airborne optoelectronic platform, the intelligent target tracking system is responsible for continuously giving the position information of the selected target, so as to...

Problems solved by technology

This processing method is difficult to transmit video data, requires high hardware computing power, and cannot meet the requirements of real-time target tracking.

Some existing airborne target tracking systems are usually difficult to process more than one image data at the same time, do not meet the real-time requirements, or cannot guarantee good target tracking quality when the real-time requirements are met
