  • Publication number: 20220034717
    Abstract: A compact hyperspectral imager adapted to operate in harsh environments and to conduct post acquisition signal processing to provide automated and improved hyperspectral processing results is disclosed. The processing includes luminance and brightness processing of captured hyperspectral images, hyperspectral image classification and inverse rendering to produce luminance invariance image processing.

  • Publication number: 20200356929
    Abstract: The current invention relates to mining systems and mine planning and in particular, to operating a mine that automatically updates a mine plan. The mining system directs operation of mining equipment within a mine based on a mine plan that schedules operations in the mine. The system further includes a mining planning system for updating the mine plan by a learning module configured to determine an inferencing model from initial data obtained from a data input module. The inferencing model is then evaluated by an estimation module using the initial data and the measurement data wherein such evaluation provides a fusion model. Consequently, a mine planner module determines an updated mine plan based on an existing mine plan and the fusion model. Based on the updated mine plan, the mining system directs operation of the mining equipment within the mine.

  • Patent number: 10254328
    Abstract: An electric fence monitoring system includes a transmission unit electrically coupled to one or more portions of an electrical fence. The transmission unit includes one or more transmission devices configured to generate and transmit one or more signals in response to an electrical parameter of the electrical fence. The system includes a sensor unit positioned proximate to the transmission unit such that one or more sensors of the sensor unit remotely sense the one or more signals from the one or more transmission devices. The system includes a controller coupled to the one or more sensors. The controller is configured to to determine an operational state of the electric fence based on the one or more signals remotely sensed by the one or more sensors. The controller is configured to report the operational state of the electric fence to one or more user devices.
