The FRESNEL Program: Fusion of Radar and Electro-optical Signals for Surveillance on Land

conference paper
Area surveillance for guarding and intruder detection with a combined camera radar sensor is considered. This specific sensor combination is attractive since complementary information is provided by the respective elements. Thus, a more complete description of objects of interest can be obtained. Several strategies to fuse the data are discussed. Results obtained with 'live' experiments are presented. When compared to camera only, a significant reduction of the number of false tracks is achieved.
