The Defense Department said Monday the university will research tracking, surveillance and identification systems intended to address challenges in resolution, occlusion, pose and aging as part of the UROPA-TSI program.

Carnegie Mellon will conduct basic and applied research and development work in Pennsylvania, Michigan, California and West Virginia through May 2017.

The contract aims to facilitate the speed, safety and efficiency of the Navy’s biometric surveillance and identification activities, DoD said.

It obligated $245,675 from fiscal year 2015 defense research, development, test and evaluation funds at the time of award.
