  • Patent number: 12267593
    Abstract: A system for automatically maintaining focus while tracking remote flying objects includes an interface and processor. The interface is configured to receive two or more images. The processor is configured to determine a bounding box for an object in the two or more images; determine an estimated position for the object in a future image; and determine an estimated focus setting and an estimated pointing direction for a lens system.

  • Publication number: 20240333660
    Abstract: A method of communication in a vehicle network is provided. An example method includes transmitting a network allocation map in a TDMA cycle, indicating reservation of time slots in the TDMA cycle. The method further includes transmitting a synchronization signal in the TDMA cycle, to synchronize the timing of nodes in the vehicle network. Each of the reserved time slots is identified by at least a network ID of a transmitting node in the vehicle network, and a slot type comprising one of a low latency traffic slot, and a bulk traffic slot. Further, the low latency traffic slots are repeated in the TDMA cycle at least as frequently as a guaranteed QoS latency parameter. Further, the bulk traffic slots are at least as long as a guaranteed QoS throughput parameter.

  • Publication number: 20240248194
    Abstract: The present application discloses a method, system, and computer system for tracking a target object. The method includes (i) receiving an indication to intercept a target object from a tracking station; (ii) determining navigation to the target object based at least in part on the indication, (iii) determining whether a scatter energy is greater than or equal to a scatter threshold, and (iv) in response to the scatter energy being greater than or equal to the scatter threshold, determine the navigation to the target object based at least in part on 1) the scatter energy or 2) the scatter energy and the indication from the tracking station.
