Abstract: An apparatus for locating an object of interest using offset. The object may be a mobile platform, or portion of same, associated with a vehicle, or a pavement segment or feature of or on a pavement segment on which the mobile platform is located. The vehicle includes first and second fixed points having a known offset from each other. An image sensor whose field of view includes the second fixed point and a segment of the pavement surface provides image data which is used with the known offset to calculate the precise location of the object of interest.

Abstract: A mobile platform for assessing and modifying pavement surfaces. An emitter generates electromagnetic waves towards a portion of a pavement surface. A condition sensor receives electromagnetic radiation from a first portion of the pavement surface and generates a first electronic signal representative of a current condition of the portion of the pavement surface. A location sensor generates a second electronic signal containing location data corresponding to the first portion of the pavement surface. A computing platform processes the electronic signals and creates a current pavement condition data point. The computing platform may compare the first electronic signal against a reference representative of a target condition, determine if there is a condition variance, and, if a condition variance exceeds a predetermined threshold, generate a condition control signal which is transmitted to and operates to modify operation of the pavement surface modification system in order to reduce the condition variance.

Abstract: A process and system for calculating drive trajectories for use by connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs), the data used and/or produced by the system, and a device for use in calculating such drive trajectories. Location data of a pavement segment is obtained and used to calculate a polynomial representation of a drive trajectory that can be used by CAVs to navigate the pavement segment. The process and system may be used, for example, to assist CAVs in navigating areas where the normal vehicle path has been altered, such as a work zone; or under conditions of reduced visibility; or to define areas to be avoided by CAVs, such as a stationary vehicle. The present application is further directed to a process, system, and device for placing and removing markings on or adjacent to pavement segments that may be used to provide data for such use by CAVs.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for decoding a decodable symbol using an optical reader having a 2D image sensor that is configured to operate in a partial frame capture operating mode. In a partial frame operating mode, the reader clocks out and captures at least one partial frame of image data having image data corresponding to less than all of the pixels of an image sensor pixel array. In one embodiment, the reader operating in a partial frame operating mode captures image data corresponding to a linear pattern of pixels of the image sensor, reads the image data, and attempts to decode for a decodable bar code symbol which may be represented in the image data.
