A connected-slot antenna includes a dielectric substrate, a circular patch overlying the dielectric substrate, and a first conductive ring surrounding the circular patch and overlying the dielectric substrate. The first conductive ring is isolated from the circular patch by a first connected slot. At least four feeds are coupled to the circular patch. Each of the at least four feeds are spaced from adjacent ones of the at least four feeds by approximately equal angular intervals. A metamaterial ground plane includes a plurality of conductive patches and a ground plane. The plurality of conductive patches are separated from the circular patch and the first conductive ring by at least the dielectric substrate. The ground plane is electrically coupled to at least a first portion of the plurality of conductive patches. One or more of the plurality of conductive patches and the ground plane are coupled to ground.

Automatic calibration, tuning and diagnostics improve precision farming by helping farmers obtain best performance from their autopilot-guided vehicles. Automatic calibration procedures that cannot be accurately performed by human drivers, automatic autopilot tuning, and simplified diagnostics are all parts of an advanced farm vehicle autopilot system.

A method for contextual inference of user activity is disclosed. In one embodiment, an indication of the motion of a pole mounted sensing device comprising at least one motion sensor and a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver configured to at least generate raw GNSS observables is received from the at least one motion sensor. The indication of the motion of the pole mounted sensing device is correlated with an operation defined in a gesture library regarding GNSS data collect by the GNSS receiver at a time when the indication of the motion is detected. The indication and the GNSS data are stored.

A Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) chipset embedded within the cellular device is accessed. The GNSS chipset calculates raw pseudoranges. The raw pseudoranges are extracted from the GNSS chipset for processing elsewhere in the cellular device outside of the GNSS chipset. A position fix is calculated based on the raw pseudoranges. At a first point in time, a first image, and at a second point in time, a second image are obtained with an image capturing device that is in a known physical relationship with the cellular device. An estimate of a distance that the cellular device moved from the first point in time to the second point in time is calculated by processing image data collected from the first point in time to the second point in time. The position fix is processed based on the estimate of the distance.

A method for estimating position and orientation of an image-capturing device is proposed. The method comprises the step of obtaining a preceding set of frames by using the image-capturing device. Each frame includes a set of image data. The method of the present technology further comprises the step of estimating a previous position and orientation of the image-capturing device by using the set of image data included in at least one preceding frame, and the step of estimating a current position and orientation of the image-capturing device by replacing a set of image data included in at least one preceding frame by a set of image data included in at least one subsequent frame. At least one subsequent frame is obtained by using the image-capturing device.

A system for identifying different types of products on a display hanger and determining a quantity of each of the different types of products includes a plurality of electrically conductive segments coupled to the display hanger, an electrically conductive rail coupled to the display hanger, and a sensor device electrically coupled to each of the plurality of electrically conductive segments and to the electrically conductive rail. The sensor device is configured to identify the different types of products on the display hanger and to determine the quantity of each of the different types of products based on a unique electrical signature associated with each of the different types of products.

An indoor navigation system is based on a multi-beam laser projector, a set of calibrated cameras, and a processor that uses knowledge of the projector design and data on laser spot locations observed by the cameras to solve the space resection problem to find the location and orientation of the projector.
摘要:
A method of projecting an image onto a viewing surface uses scanning projector, such as a laser-beam-steering pico projector, which scans a laser beam across the viewing surface. Each pixel area on the viewing surface which is included within images defined by a high intensity display digital video data, and each pixel area on the viewing surface which is included within images defined by a low intensity display digital video data are scanned. The projector beam illuminates each pixel area on the viewing surface which is included within images defined by the high intensity display digital video data for a greater period of time than is spent illuminating each pixel area on the viewing surface which is included within images defined by other digital video data.
