A vision and radar sensor integration strategy for surveillance of Advance Air Mobility Mission concept of airspace is contained in the CAD drawing in this publication developed as part of NASA's Transformational Tools and Technology project. High-density airspace operations with multiple aircraft type and potentially noncooperative aircraft require distributed sensor detection and tracking systems to monitor airspace for safe, autonomous flight operations for advanced air mobility, urban air mobility, and high density small uncrewed air systems (SUAS) flight concepts. Contained herein are drawings that are available in the stp and creo file formats of the distributed sensing nodes. Additional dovetail integration is included to enable rapid changing of embedded system. A day in the life node deployment is included in the 2023_last_flight_day.mp4. Please cite this publication if you use these drawings. This sensor configuration methodology is presented in detail in the publication reference below. Chester Dolph, Thomas Lombaerts, Corey A.
