Description

Picogrid Platform is a next-generation physical security and operational surveillance system. The Platform consists of the Lander, a mobile and rapidly-deployable surveillance asset, and Orion, cloud-based command and control software. The proposed effort configures Picogrid Platform for perimeter surveillance in coastal and riverine areas, named Coastal Defense (CODE) Configuration. Specifically, as the home of Space Launch Delta (SLD) 45, Patrick SFB is a critical facility for National Defense as one of the two main space launch facilities in the United States. Patrick SFB has a high risk and known history of trespassing by vessels along the coast and by foot along the land boundaries. This project will optimize the Platform’s computer vision models for marine vessels detection, automatically surveil for irregularities in traffic patterns, and deploy the Platform at scale at Patrick SFB to provide comprehensive perimeter security.
