  • Method of Generating a Map Based on Ground Penetrating Radar Scans
    Publication number: 20240045054
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of generating a map based on ground penetrating radar (GPR) scans including receiving GPR data corresponding to multiple path of travel of one or a plurality of moving devices and/or surfaces. Some of these paths of travel overlap at least some others and some of these paths of travel are independent of one another. Where overlapping is determined, GPR data is combined to form a higher resolution and/or more accurate determination of physical properties of a subsurface. Further, the resolution can increase with each scan of a particular area and the technology can be used in conjunction with a separate positioning system like a GPS and/or replace the separate positioning system when the resolution is sufficiently high for a portion of the surface.

  • Global error minimization in image mosaicking using graph laplacians and its applications in microscopy
    Patent number: 8983230
    Abstract: An image mosaicking method includes performing pairwise registration of a plurality of tiles (101), determining absolute homographies for each of the plurality of tiles according to the pairwise registration (102B), and performing a blending of the plurality of tiles to obtain a stitched image according to the absolute homographies (103).
