Development of diver detection and sensor integration for wharf surveillance software

The underwater security sonar system is the port surveillance system which surveys over harbors and ships in order to protect harbor facilities such as wharfs, oil refineries, airports and vehicles, from the terrorism attack under or on the sea. For our surveillance system, it is required to develop the software which can perform "automatic detection of doubtful target" by processing the signal of sonars, and which can provide the high surveillance performance and usability by integrating the information of the sensors. For this purpose, we developed the algorithm for auto-detection and tracking of doubtful target. Also, we developed the algorithm for data acquisition and image processing specialized for the infrared camera for this system.
