Abstract: A system and associated methods are disclosed for automatically detecting, tracking and classifying an at least one object, moving within an environment proximal to a structure, using a camera. In at least one embodiment, a processor receives a plurality of video frames as captured by the camera. For each of the video frames, the processor detects the presence of the at least one object within said video frame, creates a track for each of the at least one detected object, identifies each track as either an acceptable track or noise, classifies each of the acceptable tracks, and generates an at least one summary image that visually represents the at least one detected object within the environment proximal to the structure, allowing for validation and performance evaluation of the object detection, tracking, and classification process.

Abstract: A simple attachment for a reciprocating tool that will effectuate the ability to do a flush cut in an inexpensive and simple manner which is neither too rigid, nor not rigid enough. This is effectuated by providing an insert, which fits into the reciprocating tool in the same fashion as a regular blade. The present invention then offsets the placement of a blade, sander, file, or other tool by as many inches as wished by the user. The blade, sander, file, or other tool is held rigid through the use of a 45 degree bracket spanning the distance from the original plane to the offset plane, or via a single or compound trapezoid design.

Abstract: A simple attachment (30) for a reciprocating tool (10) that will effectuate the ability to do a flush cut in an inexpensive and simple manner which is neither too rigid, nor not rigid enough. This is effectuated by providing an insert (30) which fits into the reciprocating tool in the same fashion as a regular blade. The present invention then offsets the placement of a blade (110), sander, file, or other tool by as many inches as wished by the user. The blade (110) sander, file, or other tool is held rigid through the use of a 45 degree bracket (50) spanning the distance from the original plane to the offset plane, or via a single or compound trapezoid design (200).
