Sarnoff Corporation Launches AdapTrac™ Advanced Target Tracking

Sarnoff Corporation today announced the release of AdapTrac™, a robust object and target tracking solution specifically designed to run entirely on Sarnoff’s Acadia® II family of embedded video processors. AdapTrac adjusts to changes in scale, orientation and motion while tracking moving or static targets from air and ground vehicles as well as static surveillance platforms. 

Unlike other standalone tracking solutions, Acadia II allows designers to implement an array of image processing applications using a choice of three hardware configurations. All configurations allow for image processing applications such as MTI, image stabilization, multi-sensor fusion, contrast enhancement and custom application development incorporated into a single SDK. Within the Acadia II are four ARM11 pipeline processors, available for system development on the SoC.

“The Acadia II offers a single platform that addresses the video processing needs of today and tomorrow,” said Mark Clifton, Sarnoff’s Acting President and Chief Executive Officer. “The system’s ideal blend of size, weight, power, and low cost mean that customers can do much more video processing, from tracking to real-time contrast enhancement, from multi-sensor fusion to electronic stabilization, without having to purchase or redesign separate hardware for every new requirement.”

Available now, AdapTrac and Acadia II are ideal for handheld and helmet vision systems, security and surveillance platforms, manned and unmanned aerial and ground vehicles, small arms, or remote weapon systems. 

Sarnoff will be demonstrating AdapTrac and Acadia II at AUVSI from August 24-27, 2010 in booth number 3016.
