Abstract: Motion and video data from vehicle sensors and camera arrays attached to a vehicle collect video and sensor data along a path driven by the vehicle. A system processes such data to produce high-accuracy structured map data, as might be used to precisely locate a moving vehicle in its environment. Positions are calculated from the sensor data. The positions are updated based on the video data. Positions of features in the video are used to create or update structured map data.

Abstract: LiDAR-based immersive 3D reality capture systems and methods are disclosed. The reality capture system includes a set of LiDAR sensors disposed around an environment and configured to capture one or more events occurring within the environment. The reality capture system also includes a corresponding set of cameras disposed around the environment. Each camera is mounted on a same gimbal with a corresponding LiDAR sensor and has a same optical axis as the corresponding LiDAR sensor. The reality capture system further includes a base station viewpoint generator coupled to the set of LiDAR sensors and the cameras to generate a video feed based on data received from the LiDAR sensors and the cameras. The reality capture system additionally includes a virtual reality device coupled to the base station viewpoint generator to receive and display the video feed generated by the base station viewpoint generator.

Abstract: Motion and video data from vehicle sensors and camera arrays attached to a vehicle collect video and sensor data along a path driven by the vehicle. A system processes such data to produce high-accuracy structured map data, as might be used to precisely locate a moving vehicle in its environment. Positions are calculated from the sensor data. The positions are updated based on the video data. When loops in the vehicle path are detected, a loop closure error is calculated and used to update the positions as well as to reduce bias in the sensors when calculating future positions. Positions of features in the video are used to create or update structured map data.

Abstract: This invention provides a design for the uninterruptible power supply system to make it more compact in size, more intelligent in handling primary power source and other power source failure, more efficient and reliable. This 600 to 1000 watt power system is capable of taking AC, DC and battery power inputs and distributes to multiple loads after conversion. Its power sentry monitors and controls all power inputs and outputs, and capable of switching power inputs without affecting the outputs in case of power source failure. The power sentry also controls the speeds of the cooling fans, charges the batteries, communicates with the operator, displays status, manages power consumption, prepares the substitute power source before switching power source, and shuts down the whole system incase of emergencies.
