Reconnaissance technology about reflective panoramic vision for unmanned platform

The environment perception technology is most important key technology in the application of unmanned platform, and the panoramic vision imaging technology is one of most important methods in the environment perception; but the hyperbolic and parabolic single viewpoint reflective panoramic vision system used most widely have some defects, such as requiring expensive imaging lens or high precision installation, etc. On this basis, we propose the multi-viewpoint parabolic reflective panoramic vision system without expensive telecentric lens and high precision installation, present parametric model of imaging system, and analyze properties of the caustic surfaces. In the end, we design the multi-viewpoint parabolic reflective panoramic vision system to achieve the relational expression of the parameters about the maximum horizontal detection range and resolution, and analyze the affecting facts and then do experimental verification. The results indicate that the targets in farther position can be detected by using this multi-viewpoint parabolic reflective panoramic vision system.
