As a user centric system, the Iris One™ architecture will continue to evolve to be "smarter” and faster, easier to operate and maintain, wired and wireless internet enabled, and rapidly deployable for commercial, home land security and military applications.
How is this possible? The breakthroughs of Iris One™ are founded on M7 VI’s ARCA™, a suite of awarded patents and patents pending. The ARCA™ is a Lego-like component based imaging system that is functionally more powerful; this with a smaller, lighter, modular and scalable sensor architecture. The ARCA™ can accommodate color and near infrared camera modules, and also integrate (co georegister and fuse) other remote sensing modules (e.g. hyper-spectral, thermal) that can be configured via plug-and-play hardware and software modules.
The reconfigureability of Iris One™ is an integrated software driven information centric work flow paradigm. The software is continually being improved to integrate diverse remote sensing camera modules and optimized for on board processing of imaging applications, including but not limited to Ortho Mapping, Stereo DEM Generation, Change/Anomaly Detection, and Sensor Data Fusion. The latter is a patented M7VI developed module known as CoCo™ a configuration that allows Iris One™ to be co-mounted and co-registered with a second sensor such as LiDAR, obtaining georegistration of the LiDAR and the imagery onboard ready for use upon landing or, optionally, to be down streamed via wireless protocols.
Isis Sky™ is the Iris One™ onboard (in-flight) ortho processing capability. As Iris™ collects imagery, for example at 9,500 AGL a two mile swath (along the flight path) and pixels of 25 cms GSD, the imagery is assembled as a large frame and turned into an ortho image mosaic with a known positional error, the latter based on direct positioning (IMU/GPS) and USGS DEMs. M7 Visual Intelligence is continuously improving Isis Sky™ with the objective to approach as close as possible in-flight real time ortho processing.
Isis Earth™ is the post processing ortho software used to generate even more accurate ortho images. Improved accuracy from Isis Sky™ can be obtained by refined GPS (xyz) positioning in post process mode and/or by using traditional aerial triangulation procedures. The unique differentiator of Isis Earth™ is that it is lightning fast and fine tuned to Iris™.
