Publication number: 20220337788Abstract: A system for monitoring for a gas leak from a gas containing structure. The system includes a lens that directs an image of a scene of interest through an optical filter to a detector. The filter, associated with the lens, has one or more passbands that pass wavelengths which match one or more emission or reflectively wavelengths of the gas being monitored. A detector receives the image after the image passes through the lens and the filter. The detector generates image data representing the scene including the gas containing structure. A processor is configured to process the image data by executing machine executable code stored on a memory. The machine executable code processes the image data to identify turbulence flows in the image data such that a turbulence flow indicates a gas leak. The code generates and sends an alert in response to the identification of a turbulence flow.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2022Publication date: October 20, 2022Inventors: Mary D.

Patent number: 11054637Abstract: A compact adaptive optics system for long-range horizontal paths imaging that improves degraded images. The system uses a filter that corresponds to the three colors in a typical color detector element, one or more optic elements, a deformable mirror, and a detector. Focus errors, due to turbulence, in the image recorded by the detector element show up as image shifts in the three distinct color images. The shifts and statistics of these shifts between these simultaneous images are used to create control signals for the deformable mirror resulting in a compact adaptive optic system for horizontal paths without need for a point source located at the distance scene being imaged. Analysis of the relative pixel shifts in various regions of the image provides third order statistics revealing tip/tilt and additional Zernikes modes that are used to control a deformable mirror without the need for a guide star/point-source.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2018Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: Mission Support and Test Services, LLCInventors: Mary D.

Patent number: 11032475Abstract: Disclosed is a method to passively measure and calculate the strength of turbulence via the index of refraction structure constant Cn2 from video imagery gathered by an imaging device, such as a video camera. Processing may occur with any type computing device utilizing a processor executing machine executable code stored on memory. This method significantly simplifies instrumentation requirements, reduces cost, and provides rapid data output. This method combines an angle of arrival methodology, which provides scale factors, with a new spatial/temporal frequency domain method. As part of the development process, video imagery from high speed cameras was collected and analyzed. The data was decimated to video rates such that statistics could be computed and used to confirm that this passive method accurately characterizes the atmospheric turbulence.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2019Date of Patent: June 8, 2021Assignee: Mission Support and Test Services, LLCInventors: Mary Morabito O'Neill, David Terry
