Patents by Inventor PHILIPPE SEVIGNY

PHILIPPE SEVIGNY 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).

  • Publication number: 20260125165
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure enable simulation of imaging of resident space objects (RSOs) by one or more space-based image sensors. The simulation includes obtaining a satellite constellation configuration having satellite configuration parameters for at least one satellite in a constellation of satellites. The simulation also includes obtaining an RSO configuration having RSO configuration parameters RSOs. The simulation may use the satellite and RSO configuration parameters to simulate constellation ephemeris data for each of the satellites and RSOs. Based on the position of each RSO and satellite, detectability of each RSO by each satellite is simulated based on a photometry simulation using the satellite configuration parameters, including sensor characteristics of a simulated sensor. Imagery may also be simulated based on an image generation model, the sensor configuration, the photometry simulation and at least one background model.

  • Publication number: 20120166289
    Abstract: There is disclosed a system and method for real time server side per stream insertion of strategic media and per-stream delivery. In one aspect of the invention the system comprises a media server for modifying a plurality of live media sub-streams based upon the categorizations of a group of connected media clients. In a further aspect of the invention, the live source media sub-streams are modified by overlaying delimited media content segments within the plurality of sub-streams with media assets, inserting media assets into the plurality of sub-streams, removing one or more of the media content segments from the sub-streams, and adjusting encoded markers within the plurality of sub-streams to compensate for the modifications.
