The Hardware Accelerated Smart sensor uses arUco markers to allow a camera to track its own position in real time. This system is designed to operate when environmental conditions cause GPS to fail. This system utilizes a field programmable gate array (FPGA) in order to operate faster than the system would normally be able to if it was only software. This system is designed to act as a redundancy for an autonomous vehicle that normally relies on gps to track its own position.
