Visual Fusion technology is well described in peer reviewed papers and conference proceedings. The list of papers below, describe the basic detection and tracking algorithms, multi-sensor 3D position and orientation estimation, and radiometric calibration. Another paper provides details of how sensor placement affects the accuracy of 3D position estimation. This strong record of technical leadership has positioned Visual Fusion as the recognized leader in image based tracking and motion analysis.
