1 “Last Man” Increased Situational Awareness Widget By: David DeWan, Lauren Gutierrez and Daniil Zolotarev

2 Outline > Introduction Objective Functional Description Technical Description Project Evaluation Future Possibilities Summary

3 Our Idea -Implementation of technology into warfare in order to provide benefits to soldiers

4 Objective To create a device that quickly and accurately scans the area behind a soldier for potential threats To create a device that is affordable and simple enough that it can easily be distributed to all necessary armed personal in the military Reduce the chances of a soldier being caught off guard

5 Functionality Gather Infrared Readings Process Image to detect Threats Notify Soldier of possible Threats

6 Software Flow Chart Gather Infrared Readings Is above ambient temperature? Isolate high temperature area Determine if object is human Notify Soldier of possible Threats

7 Technical Design

8 Thermal Imaging Detect Infrared Heat Sources Uncooled vs Cooled Devices Utilizing LWIR with SWIR to eliminate thermal crossover

9 Thermal Sensing Element LWIR with possible use of SWIR Thermal camera producing an analog video signal Needs to be durable, reliable, and accurate Possible Choices: – PICO640 LWIR with SU1024LDM – Thermopiles

10 Microprocessor Sufficient memory Fast enough Affordable Simple to program ATMega from AVR

11 Output Device Wireless headset Secure communication area around the soldier FreeMotion 200 Wireless headset

12 Principles Extensive research currently occurring in thermal imagining Image processing methods to find people in an image Human robot interaction falls within the scope of our project

13 Evaluation Speed and accuracy - no guarantee it will always detect a threat Ethical concerns (soldier dependency)

14 Future Possibilities Create everything ourselves Add more sensors

15 Summary Introduction Objective Functional Description Technical Description Project Evaluation Future Possibilities > Summary

16 Questions
