Last year’s team, 4817, provided proof that Risley Prisms can be used to stabilize images. Raytheon has chosen to continue the design efforts into a functional system. By achieving a low-cost design, Raytheon would be able to provides UAV surveillance systems in the government and civilian markets. The goal of this project was to design a low-cost, gimbal-less system capable of providing a stabilized video from a UAV. The team designed and built a system that operates in an aerial vehicle at a height above ground level and provides a live video stream to a designated ground station. The image is stabilized and provides on-command steering of the live image with the use of a Risley Prism Assembly (RPA). A wireless data link is established between the aircraft’s mounted subsystem and a ground-level command station. The wireless data link is able to maintain a data rate capable of transmitting a constant live low-resolution video stream, GPS data, and system status data. 63

This polarimeter obtains polarimetric data by recording images of a scene taken through the linear polarizer at different rotation angles. These images are then post-processed to determine linear polarization content of a scene through the computed Degree of Linear Polarization (DoLP) and Angle of Linear Polarization (AoLP) of each scene pixel. The polarimeter was designed to be robust and to work with existing cameras for three different wavebands: visible, mid-wave infrared, and long-wave infrared. An application for this polarimeter will be to measure the polarization sensitivity of the mirrors in Raytheon’s Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) sensor. VIIRS is a production 22-band imaging radiometer used for weather and environmental studies.
