SENS

• Chair Name Rob McDonald
• Vice Chair Annette Janett
• Secretary Name NA

Total attendance
28 Number of Papers presented 5 (1 joint)
3
Goals for this Workshop

• Review Current State of Art of the Sensors
  Domain as put forth in the Call for Papers

4
Key Points

• Trends -
• Components and their Interfaces
• Need for Variable Fidelity Noise and Uncertainty
  Representation

5
Components and their Interfaces

• Explanation Composability of Systems, models,
  and algorithms supports reuse and enhances scope
  of the project.
• Recommendation SENS will serve as a forum for
  sharing ideas and reporting progress about
  composability of sensor systems

6
Need for Higher Fidelity Noise and Uncertainty
Representation

• Explanation There is a need for a set of common
  models that give effects of environment on
  sensor performance
• Examples of the effects to be modeled are
• Ocean effects on sonar performance
• Atmosphere effects on radar performance
• Obscurant effects on EO/IR
• Attribute Quality
• Range of Resolution in space and time available
  on request
• Recommendation
• Sensor Group should look to generate list of
  specific info on the type of environmental data
  that is needed from the SNE community
