    Abstract: In some examples, a collision awareness system for a vehicle includes a camera configured to mount on a protrusion of the vehicle and capture an image and a wireless transmitter configured to mount on the protrusion of the vehicle. The collision awareness system includes processing circuitry configured to mount on the protrusion of the vehicle, receive the image from the camera, and determine a distance between a point on the vehicle and an object based on the image. The processing circuitry is also configured to determine whether the distance between the point on the vehicle and the object is less than a threshold level. The processing circuitry is further configured to cause the wireless transmitter to transmit an alert to a receiver mounted on the vehicle in response to determining that the distance between the point on the vehicle and the object is less than the threshold level.

    Abstract: A system and method to automatically control aerodrome lighting from an aircraft includes selectively retrieving, via a processor, aerodrome lighting data associated with an individual aerodrome from an aerodrome lighting data source. Images are captured, using a camera having a field of view and being mounted on the aircraft, of aerodrome lighting within the camera's field of view. Image data representative of an intensity of light transmitted from the aerodrome lighting within the camera's field of view are supplied from the camera to the processor. The aerodrome lighting data and image data are processed in the processor and, in response to processing the aerodrome lighting data and the image data, commands are selectively supplied, via the processor, to a communication radio that cause the communication radio to transmit RF signals consistent with the light control characteristics associated with the individual aerodrome and based on image data supplied from the camera.

    Abstract: In some examples, a collision awareness system includes two cameras mounted on portions of a vehicle and processing circuitry configured to determine a position of an object based on an image captured by a first camera when the object is within a field of view of the first camera. The processing circuitry is further configured to determine the position of the object based on an image captured by a second camera when the object is within a field of view of the second camera. The processing circuitry is also configured to determine whether a distance between a future position of the vehicle and a current or future position of the object is less than a threshold level. In response to determine that the distance is less than the threshold level, the processing circuitry can generate an alert.
