Patent number: 12241658Abstract: Systems and methods for calibrating a heliostat (104) are disclosed. An imaging device (100) is positioned and oriented so that a calibration target (130) reflected by the heliostat (103) is visible at the imaging device and an image taken. Multiple features of the reflected calibration target in the image are identified and used to determine a centroid of reflection within the image which is then mapped to a corresponding centroid position on the calibration target. A vector t that extends between the centroid position on the calibration target and a known position of the heliostat, as well as a vectors that extends between the known positions of the imaging device and of the heliostat, are determined. A normal vector n of the heliostat is determined as the vector that bisects s and t and is used to calibrate the heliostat by updating parameters of a heliostat tracking model.Type: GrantFiled: October 1, 2021Date of Patent: March 4, 2025Assignee: Stellenbosch UniversityInventor: Willem Jacobus Smit

Patent number: 12217772Abstract: Devices, systems, and processes for reducing interruptions due to a presentation timestamp restart (PTSrs) are provided. A process includes receiving content data packets identifiable by a timestamp. The timestamps vary between a PTSmin and a PTSmax. When PTSmax is reached, a next data packet is restarted at substantially equal to PTSmin. The process includes first determining whether one of the timestamps have restarted and, if so, generating a loop over index file associating a first timestamp with a first index value (A), a second timestamp with a second index value (B), a third timestamp with a third index value (C), and a fourth timestamp with a fourth index value (D). PTSrs may be detected when the second timestamp is greater than the fourth timestamp or when the first timestamp is greater than the third timestamp. When a restart occurs, adjustments to content playback sequence are made using the index values.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2023Date of Patent: February 4, 2025Assignee: DISH Network Technologies India Private Ltd.Inventors: Vimalraj Ganesan, Deepak Sharma, Devaraja Huvinahalli

Patent number: 12216755Abstract: A system and method to verify the authenticity of a physical object, based on the efficient acquisition and digital post-processing of a large amount of optical data. An optical system, comprised of an array of microscope-type “micro-cameras” and a patterned illumination source, acquires spatial, spectral and angular information about the physical object in the form of micro-camera images. The set of all acquired images comprise one object dataset, which a post-processing system then digitally transforms into a multi-gigabyte set of semi-random keys. Authentication takes place at a later date following a challenge-and-response protocol. The high resolution (<15 ?m) of the acquired data presents a significant challenge to attempted duplication of the physical object, and the large size (>1 Gigabyte) of the key set similarly prevents both physical and digital forgery attempts.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2018Date of Patent: February 4, 2025Assignee: Ramona Optics Inc.Inventors: Roarke Horstmeyer, Robert Horstmeyer, Mark Harfouche, Ron Appel
