Tethered ball has the characteristics of the long duration, low cost, large payload, high safety performance, and it is widely applied in military and civil fields, especially in the field of various large-scale civilian activities it plays an important role on monitoring tasks. Currently, there is a suspending contradiction between the surveillance range and resolution of the tethered balloon-borne optical load. It needs urgently to be resolved that expanding the surveillance scope and enhancing the resolution. Besides, in order to improving the surveillance efficiency, panoramic surveillance images are in dire need of acquiring to increase the scope of application of the system. In order to solve these problems, an integrated panoramic surveillance system is proposed, which consists of the integrated optical sensor platform, data transmission system and ground image processing system. The whole system can get the visible 360° panoramic images, 360° cylindrical surface images, high resolution images of the interested target and the unfolding cylindrical surface images, and the system can perform the nighttime task. Integrated panoramic surveillance system can be used not only for military such as battlefield surveillance, early warning and reconnaissance, but also for the civil such as the large-scale civilian activities, public safety, geological exploration, World Expo and the Olympics. This system lay on basis for further development that the panoramic surveillance system based on the tethered balloon.
