Detection and tracking of unmanned aerial vehicles using multiple cameras
A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20240037786A1) outlines a method for detecting and tracking unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in a search space using images from multiple cameras. The method involves determining subimages indicating the presence of a UAV in the search space based on images from cameras positioned at least 100 meters apart, covering an area of at least 10,000 square meters. By analyzing these subimages, the position of the UAV in the search space can be determined and relevant information can be outputted.
Furthermore, the patent describes a computing device and a non-transitory computer-readable medium that can execute instructions to implement the method. These devices can assign search points to the UAV, determine spatial positions for these points, select additional subimages for further analysis, and even perform countermeasures to disable or destroy the detected UAV. The method also includes ignoring subimages that contain man-made or natural objects to focus solely on UAV detection. Overall, this patent presents a comprehensive approach to UAV detection and tracking using a network of cameras and advanced image processing techniques.
