Title: Terrain map summary elements
Inventor: CHOUNARD JESSE J II
IPC: G06V20/00
Filed: 2006-06-22
Abstract: Method and system for image data analysis, by making use of a Terrain Map Summary Element (TMSE) data structure, in which a Terrain Map data structure provides processed primitive data about each 2x2 kernel of pixels from an original image. The new TMSE is a hierarchical multiple-level or tiered structure of such Terrain Map elements, in which each successive Terrain Map level summarizes, for example, 16 lower level elements or member. By providing such a hierarchical nature of the map elements, richness is enhanced by each higher element because every element of each successively higher level map summarizes the data from elements of the lower level map. For example, in a five-level Terrain Map Summary Element structure according to the disclosure, each element or member of the fifth level contains information summarizing data about 256K pixels.

Title: Linear fm radar
Inventor: BECKNER FREDERICK L
IPC: G01S7/40
Filed: 2006-12-07
Abstract: A FM-CW radar system comprises a frequency modulated continuous wave digital generator that produces both in- phase (I) and quadrature-phase (Q) outputs to orthogonally oriented transmitter antennas. A linearly polarized beam is output from a switched antenna array that allows a variety of I-and-Q pairs of bowtie antennas to be alternately connected to the transmitter and receiver.  The receiver inputs I-and-Q signals from another bowtie antenna in the array and mixes these with samples from the transmitter. Such synchronous detection produces I-and-Q beat frequency products that are sampled by dual analog-to-digital converters (ADC's). The digital samples receive four kinds of compensation, including f requency-and-phase, wiring delay, and fast Fourier transform (FFT) . The compensated samples are then digitally converted by an FFT- unit into time-domain signals. Such can then be processed conventionally for range information to the target that has returned the FM-CW echo signal.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods often by measuring characterize optical structures and systems, the standard refractive error and irregular aberrations. A retinal spot can propagate through optical tissues of an eye and can be directed to refractive correction optics for correcting standard refractive errors. The corrected image is then directed to wavefront analysis optics, which form a coarse pitch lenslet array pattern and a fine pitch lenslet array pattern. The coarse pitch pattern indicates the standard refractive error of the eye, and can be used to adjust the refractive correction optics. The fine pitch pattern is formed with the corrected retinal image, facilitating precise wavefront reconstruction, measurement of high order aberrations, and the like. The coarse pitch pattern and fine pitch pattern may be formed sequentially or simultaneously.
