An unmanned vehicle capable of operating in harsh environments is disclosed. The unmanned vehicle includes an aerial platform, a piloting system supported by the aerial platform, a medium source supported by the aerial platform, and a control system having a processor running computer executable code that actuates the medium source to emit a medium away from the aerial vehicle with an intensity sufficient to disorient a subject when the medium interacts with an exteroceptive sense of a subject.

A camera system and methods of enhancing images using direct measurement of angular displacement are disclosed. The camera system includes an optical element, a focal plane array (FPA), a motion sensor and a processor. The FPA has pixels sensing image pixel data from the optical element. The pixels have an angular resolution dependent upon a configuration of the optical element and a dimension of the pixels. The pixels detect electromagnetic waves having a wavelength within a range from 800 nanometers to 20 micrometers. The motion sensor senses angular displacement in 3D. The processor receives the image pixel data generated at distinct first instants of time during an image capture period from the FPA and motion reading(s) during the image capture period, converts the motion readings into angular displacement of the FPA, and selects an image processing algorithm to generate at least one image enhancement for the image pixel data.
