In today’s battlefield scenarios, there is more than ever the need to sense, process and make an integrated decision of situations. These sensors are placed on aerial, ground and water based platforms. This course aims to give a practitioner’s view on the basic foundations and system level aspects of current concepts of radar, lidar and electro-optic sensors among others, that are based on manned as well as unmanned aerial platforms. Processing and integrating the information of these sensors into decision making at various levels is then discussed.
To develop a unified perspective of the above concepts needed to design and analyse such integrated sensing and decision systems.
This short course is supported by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) under the aegis of the project, "Capacity building for Human Resource Development in Unmanned Aircraft System (Drone and related Technology)", for which IIT Kanpur is one of the resource centers identified.
Registration is open to all institutions, including those participating in the above mentioned capacity building project.
The registration fees for 20 selected applicants from the participating institutes (in the capacity building project) will be nil.
Registration fees (non-refundable) for subsequent selected applicants from the participating institutes as well as from other institutions are given in the table attached. Strength of course participants is set about 40.
Travel and accommodation expenses must be borne by the participants. Limited on-campus accommodation is subject to availability ; we will do our best to assist any requirements.
