Advantages of multi-sensor data fusion technology

Multi-sensor data fusion has the following advantages over single-sensor information, namely, fault tolerance, complementarity, real-time, and economy, so it has gradually been popularized and applied. Application areas in addition to military, has been applied to automation technology, robotics, marine surveillance, seismic observation, construction, air traffic control, medical diagnostics, remote sensing technology and so on.

In view of the miniaturization of sensor technology, the degree of intelligence, in the information acquisition based on a variety of functions to further integration to fusion, which is an inevitable trend, multi-sensor data fusion technology also promotes the development of sensor technology.
