Abstract: Methods and systems for operating a moving platform to locate a known target at an area associated with the target are disclosed. In an example method to locate the target at the area, a first moving platform, configured with a first type of sensor, is caused to move to the area. An attempt is made to locate, via the first moving platform and the first type of sensor, the target at the area. Based on the attempt, a second moving platform, configured with a second type of sensor, is caused to move to the area. The target is located via the second moving platform and the second type of sensor.

The method even further includes a step of determining, via the second moving platform and data captured by the second sensor, the identity of the object associated with the target. The present application also describes systems and computer readable mediums directed to determining an identity of an object.

Abstract: Methods and systems for operating a moving platform to determine an identity of an unidentified target are disclosed. According to one aspect, a method includes a step of receiving an indication to determine an identity of a target. The method also includes a step of causing to move a first moving platform configured with a first sensor to an area associated with the target. The method also includes a step of causing to move a second moving platform configured with a second sensor to the area. The move may be based on a difference between a flight profile of the first moving platform and a flight profile of the second moving platform. The flight profile may include one or more of a maximum altitude, a minimum altitude, speed and night flight capability. The method further includes a step of attempting to determine or determining, via the second moving platform and data captured by the second sensor, the identity of the target.

In an example method to determine at least one of an object or an activity associated with the target, a first moving platform, configured with a first type of sensor, is caused to move to an area associated with the target. The target is located at the area. An attempt is made to determine, via the first moving platform and the first type of sensor, the at least one of the object or activity. Based on the attempt, a second moving platform, configured with a second type of sensor, is caused to move to the area. The at least one of the object or activity associated with the target is determined via the second moving platform and the second type of sensor.

Abstract: A system may be configured to provide a main body, configured to house a plugin card, and a card connector, including a first printed circuit board (PCB) having a backplane configured to electrically couple to the plugin card, a third PCB having a plurality of ruggedized connectors configured to couple to an external system, and a second PCB interposed between the first and third PCBs. The processor may be mounted on the second PCB and may determine a state of at least a portion of the system based on a sensor output, an input signal and/or an output signal, and an internal data value. The state may comprise at least one of operational, less than operational, tampered, needing maintenance, needing repair, and not working. And the determination may be performed via one or more criteria being satisfied.

Abstract: A system may include a plurality of rack-mountable, ruggedized drawers, each comprising a main body, a set of fans, a power supply, and a card connector. Connections may be provided, via a backplane of each of the card connectors, to a set of plugin cards each installed in the respective main body. A processor of the card connector of one of the drawers may represent the drawers by communicating information with an external third party.

Abstract: The present application includes a computer-implemented method for detecting a tamper event. The method includes a step of receiving, from one or more sensors on an integrated module, data indicating one or more of light, acceleration, magnetic field, rotation, temperature, pressure, humidity, and audio. The method also includes a step of transmitting, to a microcontroller/evaluation engine coupled to the integrated module, the received data from the one or more sensors. The method further includes a step of determining, via the microcontroller, the received data exceeding one or more configurable thresholds of the tamper event. The method even further includes a step of assigning, via the microcontroller, a score associated with each of the one or more configurable thresholds being exceeded by the received data. The method yet even further includes a step of collecting, via the microcontroller, an aggregate total based on the assigning step.
