Abstract:
A method for operating a system including a plurality of cameras, the method including: selecting a subset of the cameras, determining a subset of pixels captured by the camera subset, determining a pixel depth associated with each pixel of the pixel subset, and controlling system operation based on the pixel depth.

Claim (Index 8):
A method for aircraft operation comprising, at an aircraft comprising a first camera, a second camera, and a third camera:\n sampling a set of images, comprising:\n at the first camera, sampling a first image; \n substantially concurrent with sampling the first image, at the second camera, sampling a second image, wherein a first camera view region and a second camera view region both comprise a first overlapped subset; and \n substantially concurrent with sampling the first image, at the third camera, sampling a third image, wherein a third camera view region and the second camera view region both comprise a second overlapped subset; \n determining a first dataset associated with a region of the first image and a first region of the second image, wherein the region of the first image and the first region of the second image are both representative of a first obstacle within the first overlapped subset; based on the first dataset, determining a first obstacle clearance between the aircraft and the first obstacle; determining a second dataset associated with a second region of the second image and a region of the third image, wherein the region of the third image and the second region of the second image are both representative of a second obstacle within the second overlapped subset and outside the first overlapped subset; based on the second dataset, determining a second obstacle clearance between the aircraft and the second obstacle; and based on the first obstacle clearance and the second obstacle clearance, controlling flight of the aircraft.
