The Real Time Multi- User Wireless Video Link is being developed with the aim of enhancing the capabilities of soldiers by improving their ability to detect, acquire, locate and engage targets by day or night and in all visibility conditions. The primary objective of this work, undertaken as part of the LAND 125 Soldier Combat System Project, is to improve soldiers capabilities by removing the need for cables between a thermal weapon sight mounted on a weapon and a visual display mounted on a soldier's helmet. It improves their ability by enabling them to more easily travel through difficult terrain and enables them to navigate obstacles more easily. The main aim of this project is to transmit video from a source mounted on top of the soldiers weapon to a helmet mounted display. Once this is achieved then the system can be expanded to enable video to be securely transferred to a remote base, enabling the base station to accurately monitor the situation. It could also be used to review the success of missions and for training purposes. / This system also has many commercial applications for example monitoring in hazardous areas, surveillance, high quality video transmission/storage, law enforcement, fire fighting and tele-medicine. In this thesis the requirements of this system and the detailed design techniques are presented. / Thesis (MEng(ComputerSystemsEng))--University of South Australia, 2004.

Measurement of the dynamics of flexible structures is difficult because the motion is often complex and the structures are not well suited to the attachment of sensors. As a result, non-contact optical systems are used. However, optical systems produce large amounts of data which make their use in real-time measurement difficult. Conventional computers are not well suited to the processing requirements associated with data from optical systems. In this thesis, algorithms and architectures to reduce the data bandwidth of an optical measurement system are investigated. Simulations of the ability of the algorithms to find a target on a linear-array charge-coupled device (CCD) camera are performed. The running maximum algorithm provides the best accuracy and speed and therefore is recommended. A real-time architecture to implement the running maximum algorithm is developed. The architecture allows the optical system to operate at 9700 frames/second. Experimental results from a prototype system show very good accuracy for both static and dynamic measurements. / Master of Science
