after much thought, i'm copping out of creating a UAV with video tracking.now the plan is to mount a decent video camera in a controlled environment in order to track infrared signals.blimps will have IR emitters on top, emitting some sort of…
"yeah i was thinking something along those lines. i think its really going to be difficult to create an active tag that will provide consistent tracking through various crowds and structures/obstructions.
I'm a little curious about using both…"
