Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to deter an intruder from approaching and damaging a vehicle. With the use of a plurality of cameras, the system captures images of a surrounding environment of a vehicle. The system then detects a first motion-based event and, in response, stores images from at least one of the plurality of cameras. The system then detects a second motion-based event, and, in response, performs a first defensive action. Further, systems and methods are provided to capture images around the vehicle and automatically select an image associated with the insurance claim.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for processing an insurance claim using a target captured image. A motion-based event associated with a vehicle is detected. One or more images of the motion-based event are captured automatically using a vehicle sensor. The one or more images are stored in a data stored associated with the vehicle. A request for an insurance claim from a user is received. A user interface is presented that enables the user to select the one or more images stored in the data store for associating the images with the insurance claim. A selection is received of at least one target image of the one or more images. Processing of the insurance claim is facilitated along with the selected at least one target image for processing.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to generate an object detection representation of a candidate object based on sensor data representing a captured image of an environment surrounding the vehicle. A determination is made as to whether, whether the candidate object is an outlier based on the object detection representation. In response to determining the candidate object is not an outlier, the candidate object is validated as an object, a proximity distance of the object to the vehicle is determined, and the proximity distance of the object is sent as output.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for efficiently generating complex sinusoids of a desired frequency by multiplying a phasor by a predetermined value once every sampling interval, and using the highest order bits within the phasor to identify if the phasor is at an integer multiple 45 degrees and substituting components in the phasor if it is determined that the phasor is an integer multiple of 45 degrees. If the phasor is not identified as being an integer multiple of 45 degrees then an error factor for both the real and imaginary components is determined and the real and imaginary components are corrected by removing the error factor.

Abstract: A component architecture for digital signal processing is presented. A two dimensional reconfigureable array of identical processors, where each processor communicates with its nearest neighbors, provides a simple and power-efficient platform to which convolutions, finite impulse response (“FIR”) filters, and adaptive finite impulse response filters can be mapped. An adaptive FIR can be realized by downloading a simple program to each cell. Each program specifies periodic arithmetic processing for local tap updates, coefficient updates, and communication with nearest neighbors. During steady state processing, no high bandwidth communication with memory is required.
