Albatroz Engineering used MATLAB®and several companion toolboxes to develop, prototype, and implement production versions of PLMI.
为了构建早期原型,Albatroz团队使用MATLAB通过TCP/IP和GPS数据通过串行链接获取LIDAR数据。他们使用图像采集工具箱™从具有USB链接的标准网络摄像头捕获图像。在生产系统中,该相机被FireWire(IEEE-1394)链接的更高分辨率摄像机取代。
该团队使用MATLAB信号处理工具箱™ to process LIDAR signals. Using convolution functions from Signal Processing Toolbox, they developed data segmentation algorithms that interpret the cloud of points produced by LIDAR and identify power lines, trees, buildings, and other obstacles. When these algorithms identify a potential hazard, an alert is issued in the interactive interface showing geometry from LIDAR, image from video, and location from GPS.
A higher end system for airborne operation, featuring sustained data rates up to of 6MB/s, combines C++ real-time multithread acquisition, SQL engines, algorithms developed in MATLAB, then implemented in C++ and Web services. It includes a four-video, two-audio channel geo-referenced recorder from a Portuguese partner.
Albatroz Engineering使用MATLAB Compiler™,数据库Toolbox™和Matlab图形用户界面(GUI)构建工具,以创建一个独立的应用程序,用于后处理任务数据。使用此应用程序,Albatroz工程客户可以对收集在多个任务中收集的数据进行深入分析,并创建全面的多媒体报告。
PLMI系统目前正在葡萄牙使用。
