Abstract
A computer system for processing machine vision data and performing active control of a mobile platform includes a plurality of sensors configured to acquire inertial and positional data. The system further includes a first plurality of co-processors having a hardware logic configured to control the acquisition of the inertial data. A second plurality of sensors is configured to acquire image data related to the mobile platform. The system further includes a second plurality of co-processors having a hardware logic configured to control the acquisition of the image data. The system further includes state management logic to perform state management operations for the acquired inertial and positional data in a computer-readable memory. The state management is performed using a state vector. The state management logic coordinates sharing and updating the acquired machine vision data in a parallel fashion between the first and second co-processors.
