Abstract: A device according to various embodiments receives two input images, enhances them, aligns them, fuses them, performs video analytics on the fused images, and encodes the images as part of a video stream that includes analytics meta data. In various embodiments, the use of certain algorithms enables efficient utilization and minimization of hardware, and results in a light-weight device. In various embodiments, the computation and inclusion of video analytics data lessens the burden on a network control center.
