  • Patent number: 12670611
    Abstract: A method of determining a steering angle of an aircraft landing gear including: obtaining an image of the aircraft landing gear; performing edge detection on the image; determining, based at least in part on an edge obtained by the edge detection, a relative position of a component of the aircraft landing gear; and determining, based at least in part on the relative position of the component, the steering angle of the aircraft landing gear.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 12524905
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of determining a steering angle of an aircraft landing gear including: obtaining an input image of the aircraft landing gear; comparing the input image against a plurality of reference images, the plurality of reference images comprising images of the aircraft landing gear at known steering angles; determining a most similar reference image, the most similar reference image comprising the reference image of the plurality of reference images most closely matched to the input image; and determining, based at least in part on the most similar reference image, the steering angle of the aircraft landing gear.
