Heterogeneous Sensor Networks - UAVs and Unattended Ground Sensors Working Together

3D animation done by Zak to illustrate his bachelor thesis supervised by me, which was the construction of a 3D viewer for a sensor network simulation tool.
The scenes of the video illustrate the use of the techniques under development in my PhD studies related to the use of heterogeneous sensor networks in surveillance applications. These networks are composed by static sensors on the ground, those devices that blink green and red lights in the video, and mobile sensors, which are Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) that carry different kinds of sensor. In the video they are the helicopters, the airplane and the zeppelin.
