Small form factor visions systems using low-power Intel Atom CPUs in conjunction with image framegrabber hardware now make possible autonomous leak inspection and detection of oil and gas pipelines or underwater piping. When coupled with data-intensive hyperspectral imaging hardware, even the chemical composition of a leak can be analyzed and quantitied real-time.
Unmanned systems (both autonomous and non-autonomous) are expected to transform the agricultural industry in dramatic fashion by the year 2020 with aggregate demand exceeding $15 billion. Unmanned systems will touch all areas of agriculture from robotic harvesting, to crop decision-making with IoT hardware and cloud applications including pesticide scheduling, harvest scheduling, disease tracking and preventation and harvest yield analysis.
The battlefield of the future will rely heavily on drones and unmanned autonomous systems of all types: Air (UAV), land (UGS), water surface (USV), and unwater (UUV). Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) of these embedded systems will continue to be critical design factors, as will be keeping pace with year-over-year CPU performance which relates directly to intelligence, autonomy and allowable on-location endurance or persistence for these unmanned vehicles.
