Embedded sensor-processor system is being developed for on-board UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) safety applications. The role of the device is to detect intruder airplanes which are on or close to collision course. Due to weight, power, size, and cost requirements, the visual approach leads to feasible solution only. In our design, 5 cameras are applied to collect visual data from a large field of view. The image flows are processed by 3 different virtual cellular processor arrays, which are implemented in FPGA.
