Patents by Inventor Guy LIKVER

Guy LIKVER 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: 12581584
    Abstract: A system such as an imaging system may include an illumination module. The illumination module may include a light source monitoring system. The light source monitoring system may sample a light source signal and aggregate the samples into data chunks. The light source monitoring system may selectively aggregate the data chunks to form groups of a monitoring time window. The light source monitoring system may detect a fault based on a value characterizing light source performance during the monitoring time window.

  • Publication number: 20250347787
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are described to statically calibrate a time-of-flight (TOF) imaging system requiring no movement during the calibration process and no external components. Methods may include placing a target at a set distance from the imaging system, delaying a modulation signal according to a distance offset, receiving a reflected light signal from the target, generating a pixel response based on the reflected light signal and modulation signal, calculating a distance-related value based on the pixel response, determining a correction value based on the distance-related value, and storing the correction value in a memory of the imaging system. The distance-related value may include a phase offset or a depth measurement. The method may be performed for a plurality of distance offsets and corresponding delays to generate a plurality of correction values that may be used when operating the imaging system to perform depth measurements.
