GENEVIS, a Vision-Based Navigation Solution Integrated on a Single LEON4 Core


Paul DUTEIS, Roland BROCHARD, Sylvain TIBERIO

Airbus Defense & Space - Toulouse

"With the GENEVIS study, Airbus DS has successfully integrated its vision-based navigation algorithms for real-time applications on a single LEON4 core:
- METIS, a model-based tracker, for autonomous rendezvous applications
- THEMIS and Discover, a feature tracker and a landmark matching technique, for precise landing applications such as PILOT
- An in-house implementation of a Schmidt EKF in UD form
In particular, challenging software blocks such as correlation and ray tracing were ported on the GR740 under real-time constraints."
