Abstract

In a joint project, research partners across institutions combined specialties to develop a remotely-operable, multi-sensor, robotic device for the detection of land mines, unexploded ordnance (UXO), and improvised explosive devices (IEDs). The robotic detection device uses a novel subsurface radar with imaging and target classification to differentiate between dangerous landmines and harmless clutter. One important aspect of this project has been to develop a system for imaging the terrain and potential obstacles ahead of the moving vehicle. Three important tasks drive the need for this look-ahead imaging: obstacle avoidance, tripwire detection, holographic subsurface radar (HSR) image correction.
