  • Publication number: 20240320968
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and media are described herein for providing one or more visualizations corresponding to one or more tasks executed by a core processor on image data from one or more imaging devices (e.g., a camera). For example, an inspection cycle of the core processor can be initiated for determining or identifying unexpected events associated with the tasks of the core processor. Each inspection cycle may correspond to a particular imaging device. In some embodiments, an inspection cycle includes inspections of a grabbing task, a pre-processing task, a processing task, an idle period, another type of task, or one or more combinations thereof. A visualization that includes the unexpected event and the inspection cycle is provided for display on a user interface. In some embodiments, the visualization includes a standard error bar for the pre-processing task, processing task, idle period, or one or more combinations thereof.

  • Patent number: 10615483
    Abstract: The preferred field of application of the present invention concerns the technology for the stabilization of the orientation of a pointing platform in small satellites as, for example, the so-called nano-satellites. In fact, the use of nano-satellites for low-cost space applications, requires that they have performances suitable to support a large number of possible new applications, in particular it is required that they can ensure adequate telecommunications capacity even with scarce power resources. Therefore, the availability of very precise pointing systems is essential in order to make communications as efficient as possible. Moreover, it should be noted that the nano-satellite platforms are also very unstable, and therefore such pointing, when acquired, must be continuously stabilized.
