TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION — Department of Defense SBIR Phase II: N111-016

Description

Toyon Research Corporation proposes to enhance and extend our data fusion test bed that includes an Intelligence, Reconnaissance, and Surveillance (ISR) simulation, known as SLAMEM, a metrics toolbox, and a track-to-track fusion application. The ISR simulation SLAMEM will be modified to interface with the Minotaur Mission Management System (MMS) and stimulate it with track data from a simulated UCLASS UAV.<br><br>Additionally, sensor models and exploitation emulators may be modified as necessary to accommodate sensors and/or sensor modalities that are included in the UCLASS UAVs ISR capabilities. Evaluation of Minotaurs performance will be done using Toyons metrics toolbox, which processes truth data, source track data, and composite track data in order to generate measures-of-performance (MOPs). The toolbox will be modified or extended to include any MOPs or measures of effectiveness required by the UCLASS program.<br><br>Toyon Research will also deliver and install the data fusion test bed in a Navy lab for NAVAIR personnel to utilize for test and evaluation. The delivery will include SLAMEM, the metrics toolbox, a reference track fusion application, and, finally, documentation with instructions on using the fusion test bed and descriptions of the metrics and plots that can be calculated and created.
