A Review of Modern Thermal Imaging Sensor Technology and Applications for Autonomous Aerial Navigation
2021
Journal of Imaging
Large aircraft with complex navigation systems rely on a variety of sensors including radio frequency aids and high performance inertial systems rendering them somewhat resistant to GPS denial. ...
Vision-based systems, consisting of one or more cameras, could arguably satisfy both size and weight constraints faced by UAVs. ...
The odometry of the platform was estimated from the fusion of inertial measurements and jointly minimized the reprojection errors of 3D landmarks and inertial measurement errors. ...

DeepTIO: A Deep Thermal-Inertial Odometry with Visual Hallucination
[article]
2020
arXiv
pre-print
To overcome this issue, we propose a Deep Neural Network model for thermal-inertial odometry (DeepTIO) by incorporating a visual hallucination network to provide the thermal network with complementary ...
We also employ selective fusion to attentively fuse the features from three different modalities, i.e thermal, hallucination, and inertial features. ...
Selective Fusion In deep learning-based VIO, a standard way to fuse feature vectors coming from different modalities is by concatenation. ...
