[Via Satellite 04-10-2015] Boeing has acquired 2d3 Sensing, a wholly owned subsidiary of OMG plc specializing in motion imagery processing of critical intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance data generated from aerial platforms. 2d3 Sensing products can be found on the ScanEagle and Integrator systems provided by Boeing subsidiary Insitu, and this acquisition will allow further integration of 2d3 Sensing’s video analysis and other capabilities, into Insitu and other Boeing platforms.
“The services [2d3 Sensing] provide highlight ways in which computer vision and image processing technologies can be used to enhance and analyze full motion video data captured and recorded during live missions. We look forward to incorporating such improvements into our unmanned vehicles,” said Ryan Hartman, Insitu president and CEO.
