Christopher Chastain Neuhauser has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9568279
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for laser-based bore sighting, enabling wind sensing to be performed on captured images of the laser spot. Techniques can include image averaging, background subtraction, and filtering to help ensure that the Gaussian laser spot is detected in the image. Embodiments may include defining a bounding region and altering the operation of a camera such that the camera does not provide pixel data from pixels sensors corresponding pixels of outside the bounding region in subsequent image captures. Embodiments may additionally or alternatively include extracting two stereoscopic images from a single image capture.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 20, 2016
    Date of Patent: February 14, 2017
    Assignee: Cubic Corporation
