Intelligent camera automatically detects road-side bombs
Roadside bombs are sneaky and effective killers. They are easy to manufacture and hide, making it the weapon of choice for insurgents and terrorists across the world. Finding and disabling these lethal devices is very difficult. Electrical engineer Dennis van de Wouw of Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) has, in close collaboration with industry and experts of the Netherlands Ministry of Defence, developed a real-time early-warning system. When mounted on a military vehicle, it can automatically detect the presence of those bombs by registering suspicious changes in the environment. He will defend his PHD thesis on December 11th at TU/e.
