Title: Real-time moving platform management system

Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed including a moving platform system suitable for mounting and use on a moving platform for communicating in real-time, comprising: a position system monitoring location of the moving platform and generating a sequence of time-based position data; a non-line of sight communication system; a high-speed line of sight communication system; and a computer system monitoring an availability of the non-line of sight communication system and the high-speed line of sight communication system and initiating connections when the non-line of sight communication system and the high-speed line of sight communication system are available, and receiving the sequence of time-based position data and transmitting the sequence of time-based position data via the at least one of the currently available non-line of sight communication system and the high-speed line of sight communication system.

Image system for three dimensional, 360 DEGREE, time sequence surface mapping of moving objects

Patent Lu, Shin-Yee [Pleasanton, CA]

A three-dimensional motion camera system comprises a light projector placed between two synchronous video cameras all focused on an object-of-interest. The light projector shines a sharp pattern of vertical lines (Ronchi ruling) on the object-of-interest that appear to be bent differently to each camera by virtue of the surface shape of the object-of-interest and the relative geometry of the cameras, light projector and object-of-interest Each video frame is captured in a computer memory and analyzed. Since the relative geometry is known and the system pre-calibrated, the unknown three-dimensional shape of the object-of-interest can be solved for by matching the intersectionsmore » « less
