Pyramid Vision Unveils TerraSight(TM) Software That Turns Real-Time Surveillance into Actionable Intelligence.PRINCETON, N.J. -- Pyramid Vision(TM), a wholly owned subsidiary Wholly Owned Subsidiary A subsidiary whose parent company owns 100% of its common stock. Notes: In other words, the parent company owns the company outright and there are no minority owners. of Sarnoff Corporation Sarnoff Corporation, with headquarters in Princeton, New Jersey, is the former RCA Laboratories. The headquarters is the site of the development of color television, CMOS technology, electron microscopy, and many other important technologies since the cornerstone was laid just , today announced the launch of its video exploitation system, TerraSight(TM) at the Air & Space Conference and Technology Exposition, in Washington DC, September 12-14, 2005. TerraSight delivers real-time processing Noun 1. real-time processing - data processing fast enough to keep up with an outside process real-time operation data processing - (computer science) a series of operations on data by a computer in order to retrieve or transform or classify information , enhancement, visualization and analysis of video that turns aerial reconnaissance into accurate intelligence for military organizations. The TerraSight product suite addresses the Armed Forces' aggressive use of unmanned aerial vehicles
UAV Unmanned Air Vehicle UAV Unmanned Aerospace Vehicle UAV Unmanned Airborne Vehicle UAV Uninhabited Air Vehicle UAV Urban Assault Vehicle UAV Unpiloted Aerial Vehicle (less common) video with metadata, such that it can be shared across multiple organizations and rapidly distilled into actionable information. TerraSight is comprised of several components. The Manager provides real-time acquisition, processing and synchronization of video. The media Player allows capabilities for viewing, playing, and video enhancement. The 3D Visualizer vi·su·al·iz·er n. One who visualizes, especially a person whose mental images are predominantly visual. Noun 1. visualizer - one whose prevailing mental imagery is visual visualiser provides the real-time display of video and intelligence data over a 3D map. TerraSight's tools allow operators to find, identify, track, target and engage threats allowing collaboration and decision making up and down the command chain. "Current available tools severely limit the utilization of aerial video," said Dr. Mark Sartor, Senior Director of Business Development, Vision and Visualization Systems, of Sarnoff Corporation. "With our Armed Forces' focus on persistent surveillance A collection strategy that emphasizes the ability of some collection systems to linger on demand in an area to detect, locate, characterize, identify, track, target, and possibly provide battle damage assessment and re-targeting in near or real-time. , the TerraSight product suite provides unparalleled capability for comprehensive exploitation of aerial video-based data. It enables our military organizations to truly collaborate and turn video surveillance into an offensive asset as well as an intelligence tool. TerraSight puts video on the map." TerraSight delivers: --Integrated Information - TerraSight combines aerial video with metadata. Video images are synchronized with data from diverse sources including maps, terrain information, GPS positioning and other intelligence sources. TerraSight turns every pixel into an accurate coordinate. --Threat Detection - TerraSight detects moving targets and graphically alerts the operator while recording the data. --Instant Communications - Operators can send appropriate actionable information to participating units from field forces to command centers. This intelligence data can be customized for delivery in a variety of forms: compressed video compressed video - video compression for handheld units or PDAs, full resolution video and superimposed su·per·im·pose tr.v. su·per·im·posed, su·per·im·pos·ing, su·per·im·pos·es 1. To lay or place (something) on or over something else. 2. data for larger computers. --Comprehensive Visualization in a Common Operational Picture - Real-time visualization of eight or more video feeds and intelligence data on a 3D globe with satellite reference data. TerraSight features a scalable architecture allowing expansion modules for adding specialized capabilities such as tracking, geo-registration and reporting. TerraSight use applications include: situational awareness, forensic and after action reports, bomb and collateral damage collateral damage Surgery A popular term for any undesired but unavoidable co-morbidity associated with a therapy–eg, chemotherapy-induced CD to the BM and GI tract as a side effect of destroying tumor cells assessment, multi-service, multi-sensor surveillance, target identification, geo-location, image resolution enhancement, event detection, and video data import/export. About Pyramid Vision Pyramid Vision(TM) was founded in 1997 to commercialize Sarnoff Corporation's advanced vision and visualization technology. Sarnoff's expertise in the military use of video dates back to its founding as RCA See RCA connector and video/TV history. Laboratories during World War II, when it designed video guidance systems for glide bombs and B-17 drones. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Sarnoff, Pyramid Vision has direct access to the resources of one of the world's leading innovation services and technology development companies. Pyramid Vision provides marketing, sales, and support for Sarnoff's vision products. |
