Abstract

All living organisms have the ability to gain information about their environment, as well as to interpret this information to take appropriate decisions. Building a complete picture of the environment could be achieved using a single sensing element or by the fusion of the data gathered from multiple sensing elements. The operation of the human brain is probably the best analogy to a multisensor data fusion system, where the brain acts as the fusion node and makes sense of input provided by our five sense organs, as illustrated in Figure 2.1.
