  • Publication number: 20230396888
    Abstract: At least one combined image may be created from a plurality of images captured by a plurality of cameras. A sensor unit may receive the plurality of images from the plurality of cameras. At least one processor in communication with the sensor unit may correlate each received image with calibration data for the camera from which the image was received. The calibration data may comprise camera position data and characteristic data. The processor may combine at least two of the received images from at least two of the cameras into the at least one combined image by orienting the at least two images relative to one another based on the calibration data for the at least two cameras from which the images were received and merging the at least two aligned images into the at least one combined image.

  • Patent number: 10019632
    Abstract: In a surveillance system including a remote sensor apparatus and a portable receiver, a method is provided for collecting and processing data related to a surrounding environment of the remote sensor apparatus including image data for a scene external to the housing of the apparatus. The method includes receiving, at the processing unit, raw image data simultaneously from a plurality of image sensors as the raw image data is being captured by the plurality of image sensors. One or more light sources are placed around a wide-angle lens fitted to each of the image sensor. Infrared or near-infrared light emanating from the plurality of light sources is used in a dark environment. The method also includes processing, at the processing unit, the simultaneously received raw image data to generate pre-processed image data. The method further includes transmitting the pre-processed image data to the portable receiver using the wireless transceiver.

  • Patent number: 9806833
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for transmitting signals while facilitating channel-specific signal insertion to local user terminals. In one mode, a communication device may operate to transmit signals from a remote signal source (via a communication network infrastructure) to one or more local user terminals. In a second, the communication device may insert a locally-obtained break-in signal into one or more downlink communication channels, and/or bands, thereby providing the break-in signal to one or more specific local user terminals. In this manner, communications over a communication channel to a local user terminal may be interrupted by or mixed with an inserted break-in signal to the user terminal. Additionally, the communication device may also operate to establish bidirectional communications between a local operator and one or more user terminals as well as relay communications between two or more local user terminals while bypassing the conventional network infrastructure.

  • Patent number: 9479697
    Abstract: A method is provided for a surveillance system including a remote sensor apparatus a portable receiver. The method includes receiving, at the portable receiver, image data collected simultaneously from a plurality of image sensors installed in the remote sensor apparatus. The method also includes processing, at the portable receiver, the received image data by, for each of the first plurality of captured images, detecting image features and performing feature matches by matching control points across neighboring images based on a control-point assumption that the control points are relevant only in areas of field of view overlap. The areas of field of view are determined by positions of the plurality of image sensors and a field of view of a wide-angle lens fitted with each of the plurality of image sensors. The method further includes generating a panoramic view by blending the processed first plurality of captured images.
