  • Patent number: 11887297
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for evaluating a set of computed tomography data associated with a lattice structure. The lattice structure may be additively manufactured. The computed tomography data may be segmented using a filter for identifying blob-like structures to identify nodes present within the lattice structure. A three-dimensional path traversal is applied to volumetric data to identify a plurality of struts within the lattice structure that are compared to corresponding struts within a set if three-dimensional mesh data of the lattice structure to identify defective struts. Further, two-dimensional slices may be extracted from each of the computed tomography data and the mesh data and compared to identify one or more inconsistencies indicative of defects within the lattice structure.

  • Publication number: 20240027628
    Abstract: A system comprises a GNSS receiver that receives a GNSS signal and produces GNSS measurements; a plurality of inertial sensors that produce inertial data; and a navigation system comprising a Kalman filter and an inertial navigation unit. The Kalman filter receives the GNSS measurements and calculates pseudo-range residuals, delta-range residuals, pseudo-range chi square values, delta-range chi square values, accelerometer bias estimates, and gyroscope bias estimates. A spoof detection system communicates with the Kalman filter and comprises a set of detection monitors that determine an integrity of the GNSS measurements. The detection monitors detect if the pseudo-range residuals, the delta-range residuals, the pseudo-range chi-square values, the delta-range chi-square values, the accelerometer bias estimates, or the gyroscope bias estimates, go beyond a fail threshold indicating that the GNSS signal is abnormal.
