  • Patent number: 11899407
    Abstract: A device implementing a real time clock integrated module for outputting data indicating a time-of-day. The real time clock integrated module includes: a high-precision oscillator or atomic clock having an accuracy of 50 ppb (parts per billion) or better; a timing circuit for generating time-of-day data according to a clock signal outputted from the oscillator or atomic clock; a power source allowing the timing circuit to maintain time when the device is powered off. The timing circuit includes a real time clock and a logic device storing a timestamp. The timing circuit is configured when the device is powered off to update the timestamp value based on the oscillator or atomic clock and to generate a time reference signal and to provide to the device the updated timestamp value and the time reference signal that the device can use as a time reference once the device is powered up again.

  • Patent number: 11530919
    Abstract: This technology includes methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and pattern navigation aiding devices that obtain one or more images of a section of sky. Stars comprising at least one or more artificial stars in the one or more obtained images of the section of the sky that are in an image pattern that match above a set threshold at least one previously shared beacon pattern are identified. Navigational information from the identified image pattern with the at least one or more artificial stars that matches above the set threshold the at least one previously shared beacon pattern is determined and output to provide navigational assistance.
