Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to ranging object(s) nearby an aircraft using triangulation. A light projector (28L, 28R) mounted at a projector location on the aircraft projects pulses of polarized light onto the scene external to the aircraft. The projected pulses of polarized light are polarized in a first polarization state. A camera (30L, 30R) mounted at a camera location on the aircraft has a shutter synchronized to the projector output pulse and receives a portion of the projected pulses of polarized light reflected by the object(s) in the scene and polarized at a second polarization state orthogonal to the first polarization state. Location(s) and/or range(s) of the object(s) is calculated, based on the projector location, the camera location, and pixel location(s) upon which the portion of light is imaged.

Abstract: A radio frequency (RF) obstacle detection system of a vehicle 100 includes an RF radar module 102 that transmits an initial RF signal having a first signal strength and to receive at least one reflected RF signal having a second signal strength based on the initial RF signal. A radar reflector module 110 is coupled to the vehicle and disposed at a first distance remotely located from the RF radar module. The radar reflector module receives the RF signal generated by the RF radar module and efficiently retroreflects the RF signal to generate a reflected signal having a second signal strength back to the RF radar module. A control module 108 determines a second distance between the radar reflector module and at least one obstacle remotely located from the vehicle based on the reflected signal provided by the radar reflector module and a received signal induced by the at least one obstacle.

Abstract: A method (52) of monitoring an aircraft (28) interior includes capturing (54) an image using at least one camera (12) mounted within the fuselage (26) of the aircraft, the image being a captured image including individual image frames. The method further includes modifying the captured image and generating (56) an optimized image using an image processing module, detecting (58) an animate object within the optimized image and identifying features of the animate object using an object detection module, and displaying (68) the optimized using a display module (20).

Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to ranging object(s) nearby an aircraft (12) using triangulation of pulses of spatially-patterned light projected upon and reflected by the object(s). The projected pulses provide rapidly-changing illumination of a spatially patterned portion of the scene. A camera (36, 38) receives a reflected portion of the projected pulse and focuses the received portion onto a plurality of light-sensitive pixels, thereby forming a pulse image. The pulse image includes pixel data indicative of a rate of change of light intensity focused thereon exceeding a predetermined threshold. Pixel coordinates, corresponding to a subset of the plurality of light-sensitive pixels that are indicative of the rate of change of light intensity exceeding a predetermined threshold, are identified. Trajectory and/or range data of object(s) in the scene are calculated, based on a projector location, a camera location, and the identified pixel coordinates.

Abstract: A vision-based aircraft cabin light monitoring/control system is used to maintain the light intensity level within the aircraft cabin at a desired level. The system uses video cameras (34) to continuously monitor the ambient light entering the passenger cabin windows (28), analyzes the video stream/feed to identify the light intensity level within the cabin, identifies the window whose state should be controlled, and generates commands to control the window through central cabin controllers (14). The system further compensates for light sources internal to the cabin and monitors the phase of flight to ensure compliance to specific light conditions within the aircraft cabin.

Abstract: A camera with a field of view toward an external environment of an aircraft is disposed within an aircraft door. A display device is disposed within an interior of the aircraft. A processor is operatively coupled to the camera and to the display device. The processor analyzes image data captured by the camera to provide alerts, automatic guidance, or other outputs that can reduce aircraft crew workload, thereby increasing crew efficiency as well as the safety of the aircraft crew and passengers during aircraft operation.

Abstract: A system can include an unmanned aerial vehicle (10) and an altimeter disposed on the unmanned aerial vehicle. The altimeter can include an ultra-wideband radar antenna (12) disposed orthogonally to a plane of straight and level flight of the unmanned aerial vehicle and having an omnidirectional azimuthal beam pattern orthogonal to the plane of straight and level flight of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The altimeter can be configured to determine an altitude of the unmanned aerial vehicle above a target surface based on time of flight of radar pulses between the ultra-wideband radar antenna and the target surface.
