A note on what was done to achieve it.

Running compute intensive radar tracking software on a constrained computing platform.

Target tracking on low resource platforms. We're currently writing a new lean and mean inner core for the tracker suitable for running on almost any compute hardware. Because embedded systems deserve to know what is going on too.

We're currently testing a version that can track from Stanag 4607 (radar) input data. The plan is to make a demo version available online in the next few weeks.

Started work on a new "track everything" tracker today. Aiming to apply some lessons from past designs, together with some experience from scaling microservices to push the number of simultaneous tracks much higher than before (without melting the CPU).

Spent a bit of time benchmarking and profiling the code. A significant portion of time was spent in preparing the data structures used for the association. Finding a more elegant way to do it resulted in a 10x speedup, and better code. Almost everything benefits from a good edit.
