Lester ANDERSON FOSTER, III 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).

  • Systems and methods for sensor synchronization
    Patent number: 9516395
    Abstract: A sensor system may comprise a sensor, an oscillator, a receiver, a processor, and a data interface. The sensor may be configured to detect an environmental condition and produce a sensor signal in response. The receiver may receive a signal comprising a time reference having a first frequency. The oscillator may be configured to produce a precision time reference signal having a second frequency that is higher than the first frequency. The processor may be configured to generate a time stamp using a combination of the time reference and the precision time reference signal and package data from the sensor signal with the time stamp. The data interface may be configured to transmit the packaged data over a network.
    Type: Grant

  • Imaging data correction system and method
    Patent number: 9392243
    Abstract: Methods and systems for use in calibrating imaging data, are provided that include using a calibration array to generate a test pattern. The calibration array can emit a test pattern having geometric, temporal, and electromagnetic characteristics. The collected data can be compared with the geometric, temporal and electromagnetic characteristics to determine an error factor that can then be used in analyzing the collected data.
