Camera-RFID Fusion for Robust Asset Tracking in Forested Environments
Passive RFID tags offer a cost-effective and scalable solution for tracking numerous deployed assets. However, in forested environments, signal attenuation and multipath effects generally limit RFID spatial accuracy to the meter level. Conversely, while cameras employing stereo vision can achieve centimeter-level precision, relying solely on computer vision fails to resolve issues arising from spatial association ambiguity and partial occlusions in dense settings. Fusing these modalities allows systems to harness the high-accuracy benefits of vision while retaining the robust, non-line-of-sight identification advantages of RFID. Yet, a primary challenge in achieving this, which is the cen...
