Patent number: 11072439Abstract: A mobile fixture includes a movable base, a support platform, an adaptor interface, at least one sensor, and a controller. The movable base is configured to travel over a floor. The support platform is articulable with respect to the base. The adaptor interface moves with the support platform, and is configured to mechanically interface with an attachment member. The at least one sensor is coupled to the adaptor interface and is configured to detect at least one of a force or movement resulting from an interaction between the adaptor interface and the attachment member. The controller is operably coupled to the movable base, support platform, and at least one sensor, and is configured to control movement of at least one of the movable base or support platform responsive to the at least one of the force or movement detected by the at least one sensor.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2018Date of Patent: July 27, 2021Assignee: THE BOEING COMPANYInventors: Jonathan B. Vance, Andrew Joseph Martignoni, III, Brian M. Finn

Patent number: 9860489Abstract: A surveillance system is disclosed that includes one or more data acquisition devices, an image database, and a processing system. The data acquisition devices are configured to acquire surveillance data from one or more geographic locations, and the image database stores image data for the one or more geographic locations. The processing system is configured to electronically display an image of one or more of the geographic locations using the image data stored in the image database. The processing system is further configured to accept input through a user interface to allow graphical manipulation of the displayed image in three-dimensional space to select a view of the geographical location that is to be subject to surveillance by the data acquisition devices. The displayed image selected by the user is employed to generate acquisition parameters for controlling the one or more data acquisition devices to surveil the geographical location corresponding to the displayed image.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2013Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: The Boeing CompanyInventors: Andrew Joseph Martignoni, III, James Louis Paunicka
