Abstract: The present invention is directed to a small, lightweight artificial satellite with edge computing capabilities. The artificial satellite is configured to perform onboard georectification and generation of analytics-ready data products. The artificial satellite includes at least one sensor operable to capture hyperspectral, multispectral, and/or video image data, and an onboard processor including at least one payload processor. The payload processor is operable to perform georectification and/or position rectification of image data using one or more onboard reference images, vector maps, positional data, and/or inter-satellite information, such that the image data is spatially accurate prior to transmission.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a small, lightweight artificial satellite with edge computing capabilities. The artificial satellite includes a plurality of high-quality sensors to capture sensor data, which is then processed onboard the artificial satellite prior to transmitting the processed data. The artificial satellite of the present invention overcomes limitations of the prior art by reducing latency and enabling real-time data analytics through edge computing.

Abstract: A searching game utilizing a bag having a window and containing physical objects together with filler. A means is included for determining for which object a participant should search. The determining means can be a flash card or an electronic storage medium to be used in conjunction with a player. The object is displayed, and one searches for it by manipulating the bag until the desired object is visible through the window. Preferably, after all the objects have been located, the determining means establishes a different order for locating the objects. In one particular embodiment, each physical object shows a number that is different from the number shown by any other physical object and is the answer to a mathematical problem which is displayed.
