Abstract:

An improved human-sensor system for allowing an observer to efficiently perceive, navigate, and control a sensor network. A first layer of the system is a spherical control interface that independently provides an indication of the orientation of a sensor being controlled by the interface. A second layer of the system enhances a live sensor feed by providing a virtual, environmental context when the feed is displayed to an observer. A third layer of the system allows an observer to switch from a first-person perspective view from a sensor to a third person perspective view from movable point of observation in virtual space. A fourth layer of the system provides a virtual representation of the sensor network, wherein each sensor is represented by a virtual display medium in a virtual space. A fifth layer of the system provides a methodology for navigating and controlling the virtual sensor network of Layer 4.
