Cockpit

Visualization of GPS and video data in the Cockpit application.

Description: Cockpit is an application for the visualization of sensor data and assistance functions of cognitive systems. The screenshot shows the usage of Marble to visualize the position of the vehicle (orange, GPS position mapped to the nearest road). The camera field of view shown in green in Marble corresponds to the video image on the left. Speed limit signs recognizedin the video are shown in Marble. Marble is also used to seek through sensor data (i.e. clicking on some point in the map seeks the video to the closest position).

Plugins

geoshape (Koffice2)

alt Marble embedded in KPresenter

Description: geoshape is a so called shape, a plugin that can be used in (nearly) any Koffice2 application, like KWord, KPresenter and so on. At the moment it is limited to displaying a simple map, like they can be seen in Marble. Features like displaying adresses from a spreadsheet might follow later but are nowhere near implemented.
