Abstract: A seamless lens cover, and methods of forming such a seamless lens cover. The cap structure that covers a camera of a rotating panoramic camera system includes a seamless lens cover through which images are obtained by the camera. The cap structure may be injection molded at an initial lens cover thickness, and then a portion of the as molded initial lens cover thickness may be removed (e.g., by machining away) to achieve the final desired thickness. By such a method, the lens cover may be injection molded at thicknesses suitable for injection molding (e.g., about 0.06 to about 0.1 inch), after which most of the thickness may be machined away, to provide a seamless lens cover having a thickness of less than about 0.015 inch, exhibiting at least 60% transmittance to the thermal spectrum, no lensing characteristics, and no curvature effect.

Abstract: A Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) system makes use of digital circuitry for synchronizing the sampling of a received radar signal with a transmitted radar signal. The digital synchronization achieves improved waveform reproduction and greater receiver sensitivity. Furthermore, the system employs digital circuitry to control the gain of a receiver amplifier. The digitally controlled gain makes it possible to accurately calibrate the amplitude of received radar signals with great precision while achieving good dynamic range.
