Abstract

The current target tracking system of large size, low integration, and high power consumption, mostly use X86 architecture processor as the core. Based on the requirements of target tracking system, this paper designs the circuit of I.MX6Q as the core, integrates power supply, USB interface, expansion interface, video output interface, RTC and so on as the hardware platform, embedded Linux operating system as the software running environment of the target tracking system. In the aspect of hardware, the main devices are selected and designed; In the aspect of software, this paper envisions the development environment which is more humanized, and the embedded Linux system is cut and transplanted. The test results show that the system is not only stable and can track a target in real time, but also meet the requirements of small size and low power consumption.
