TRACKING AND SENSOR DATA FUSION - WOLFGANG KOCH...

Sensor Data Fusion is the process of combining incomplete and imperfect pieces of mutually
complementary sensor information in such a way that a better understanding of an underlying
real-world phenomenon is achieved. Typically  this insight is either unobtainable otherwise or
a fusion result exceeds what can be produced from a single sensor output in accuracy 
reliability  or cost. This book provides an introduction Sensor Data Fusion  as an information
technology as well as a branch of engineering science and informatics. Part I presents a
coherent methodological framework  thus providing the prerequisites for discussing selected
applications in Part II of the book. The presentation mirrors the author's views on the subject
and emphasizes his own contributions to the development of particular aspects. With some delay
Sensor Data Fusion is likely to develop along lines similar to the evolution of another modern
key technology whose origin is in the military domain  the Internet. It is the author's firm
conviction that until now  scientists and engineers have only scratched the surface of the vast
range of opportunities for research  engineering  and product development that still waits to
be explored: the Internet of the Sensors.
