  • Patent number: 12225291
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for online sensor motion compensation. For example, the method includes: applying a random mechanical excitation to a support structure, wherein a plurality of image capture devices and a plurality of sets of strain gauges are coupled to the support structure; measuring, with each set of strain gauges of the plurality of sets of strain gauges, simultaneous to the application of the random mechanical excitation, a strain; capturing, with each image capture device of the plurality of image capture devices, simultaneous to the application of the random mechanical excitation, a series of images of a calibration target; and generating, based on the strain and the series of images, a mapping between the strain and a displacement between the plurality of image capture devices.

  • Patent number: 12083967
    Abstract: A mounting device includes an elongated beam having a first end portion, a second end portion, and a side surface extending between the first end portion and the second end portion. The mounting device also includes a first camera mount attached to the first end portion configured to support a first camera, a second camera mount attached to the second end portion configured to support a second camera, and a bracket for fixedly connecting the elongated beam to a vehicle. The bracket is positioned between the first end portion and the second end portion. The bracket includes at least one base configured to be attached to the vehicle and a wall extending from the at least one base comprising an opening sized to receive the elongated beam, such that engagement between the wall and the elongated beam restricts rotation of the elongated beam about multiple axes.
