Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for cognitive resource scheduling for radar systems. Embodiments of the present disclosure demonstrate the implementation of a policy neural network to perform task scheduling, which offers superior performance to existing heuristic methods while maintaining feasible execution times to enable real-time implementation.

Abstract: The invention discloses a method of determining the position and orientation of an element (such as a platform) in space by determining the intersection of a line with a plane (or with another line). Three different implementations are disclosed.

Abstract: An arrangement for obtaining three-dimensional position data on surfaces defining a room, and objects enclosed by that room. The room is scanned with a master and slave sensors to determine the three-dimensional profiles of surfaces that are visible to the sensors. A pattern is then projected by the master sensor onto a known surface, and slave sensors spaced from the master sensor search for that pattern. The position of the pattern is determined angularly by each slave sensor, and the projection of the pattern is thereafter discontinued. Each salve sensor then measures the distance to the known surface at that angle with respect to its own coordinate system. This is repeated three times so that three such patterns are located. The position data from all of the sensors are transformed into a single common coordinate system, based upon sensor locations determined by the measurement of the three patterns.

Abstract: An arrangement for removing excess material from an object surface, to provide a desired finished surface. Holes are drilled into the object so that the bottoms of the holes lie on the desired finished surface. The holes have a shape so that the observed hole diameter at the prevailing surface of the object is dependent on the hole depth and thereby dependent on the amount of material remaining to be removed between the prevailing surface and the desired finished surface. The prevailing surface is continuously observed and measured, and the depths of material to be removed in a sequence of steps is calculated dependent on the measurements of the prevailing surface and the coordinates of the desired finished surface. As a result of the calculations, the depth of material removed during each step is controlled, so that upon carrying out a sequence of such steps, the surface exposed on the object after the last step has been carried out, coincides with the desired finished surface.
