Methods and systems are described herein for hosting and arbitrating algorithms for the generation of structured frames of data from one or more sources of unstructured input frames. A plurality of frames may be received from a recording device and a plurality of object types to be recognized in the plurality of frames may be determined. A determination may be made of multiple machine learning models for recognizing the object types. The frames may be sequentially input into the machine learning models to obtain a plurality of sets of objects from the plurality of machine learning models and object indicators may be received from those machine learning models. A set of composite frames with the plurality of indicators corresponding to the plurality of objects may be generated, and an output stream may be generated including the set of composite frames to be played back in chronological order.

Classification parallelization architecture

Methods and systems are described herein for determining three-dimensional locations of objects within identified portions of images. An image processing system may receive an image and an identification of location within an image. The image may be input into a machine learning model to detect one or more objects within the identified location. Multiple images may then be used to generate location estimations of those objects. Based on the location estimations, an accurate three-dimensional location may be calculated.

Point of interest tracking and estimation

A common command and control architecture (alternatively termed herein as a 'universal control architecture') is disclosed that allows different unmanned systems, including different types of unmanned systems (e.g., air, ground, and/or maritime unmanned systems), to be controlled simultaneously through a common control device (e.g., a controller that can be an input and/or output device). The universal control architecture brings significant efficiency gains in engineering, deployment, training, maintenance, and future upgrades of unmanned systems. In addition, the disclosed common command and control architecture breaks the traditional stovepipe development involving deployment models and thus reducing hardware and software maintenance, creating a streamlined training/proficiency initiative, reducing physical space requirements for transport, and creating a scalable, more connected interoperable approach to control of unmanned systems over existing unmanned systems technology.
