Sarnoff provides custom hardware and software solutions for real-time applications. Our advanced suite of algorithms produces practical results in real-time image processing [1] and can be integrated into systems, boards, chips or a variety of software solutions. From video and information networking to object detection and tracking [2], our array of technologies provide a commanding advantage to any application.

Embedded Vision capabilities offer increased control of video and imagery, generating clear and actionable information. Our image stabilization [3] technology turns shaky video into useable data, while image enhancement [4] and fusion capabilities drastically improve clarity, as well as object detection and recognition [5]. Capabilities such as moving object detection [6] and 360° visualization provide advanced protection and surveillance opportunities for the defense and homeland security [7] industries.

These capabilities work in real world applications to support key defense initiatives, protect borders and save lives. Wearable computing vision [8]enables soldiers to share video and mission information, and access enhanced vision systems through the image technology within their helmets. Distributed Aperture Systems [9] (DAS) provide situational awareness for day or night surveillance, and allow a 360° high-resolution hemispherical view of surrounding areas from safely inside a tank, submarine, personnel carrier or other. Our Smart Camera [10] processing has applications ranging from automotive safety [11] (Adaptive Cruise Control) to active vision processing (object detection and tracking).
