  • System and Method for Automatic Person-To-Person Vehicle Matching
    Publication number: 20140289078
    Abstract: Computer-assisted and location-aware sales and marketing systems help buyers and sellers of vehicles find each other when one has (and the other wants) a particular type of vehicle, and when they are in geographic proximity to each other. Extensions of the system allow agents (friends, acquaintances, employees) of the principals to increase the geographic range over which a sales match may be made. Other operational features and modes are also described and claimed.

  • Vidicon image motion compensation technique
    Patent number: 4631583
    Abstract: In a laser video imaging system, fiducial marks serving as reference points are physically applied to the faceplate of a video camera so that the fiducial marks become recorded on the observed scene. A boresight reticle produced by system electronics maintains a fixed relationship with the fiducial marks so that the reticle appears in proper superposition over an observed target, even when line-of-sight errors are introduced by extraneous influences.
