Fraunhofer Institute of Optronics, System Technologies and Image Exploitation IOSB We develop high-performance AI-based solutions for multimodal and multispectral reconnaissance. Our competence ranges from ground-based reconnaissance using drones to wide-area reconnaissance using aircraft or reconnaissance satellites. Our specially developed target detection methods cover the entire spectrum of requirements for strategic reconnaissance through to tactical reconnaissance.
We develop systems for intelligent image exploitation, interactive recognition assistance, and semi-automated reporting for air and satellite image exploitation based on standards and coordinated formats.
Our competencies include, in particular, reconnaissance with small drones of various types and from different manufacturers in a wide range of application scenarios, as well as their connection to command and control systems. We enable the uniform and manufacturer-independent control, coordination, and sensor data transmission of drones and other renamed systems (land, air, water), as well as the integration of stationary ad hoc sensor networks.
Our methods for optimized trajectory and mission planning, for on-board processing of image and video data, and for (partially) automated result generation enable new applications for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), including in groups, and provide new approaches for manned-unmanned teaming (MUM-T).
