Abstract: An underwater vehicle provided with a sonar for detecting underwater objects, the sonar being a sonar whose angular coverage in elevation is comprised between 45 and 240 degrees, is oriented towards the surface when the underwater vehicle is in the detection phase of an underwater object and whose angular coverage in bearing is less than 10 degrees to obtain measurements in a plane, all the measurements of a plane being obtained in one emission/reception cycle, the sonar allowing the detection of underwater objects located at a depth less than that of the underwater vehicle.

Abstract: An acoustic analysis system includes an acoustic sensor array that receives acoustic signals from a target scene and outputs acoustic data based on the one or more acoustic signals. A processor receives a first set of acoustic data representing a first portion of the target scene and having a first field of view (FOV), generates a first acoustic image based on the first set of acoustic data, receives a second set of acoustic data representing a second portion of the target scene and having a second FOV, wherein the second FOV is different than the first FOV, generates a second acoustic image based on the second set of acoustic data, registers the first acoustic image and the second acoustic image to form an aligned first acoustic image and second acoustic image, and generate a panorama comprising the aligned first acoustic image and second acoustic image for presentation on a display.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that include a plurality of sensors, communicatively coupled to one another, to periodically transmit positional location information. A digital image capture device, communicatively coupled to the plurality of sensors, may capture an image of a scene which includes at least one of the plurality of sensors. A processor, communicatively coupled to the digital capture device, may determine a measurement of a least one object in the captured image of the scene, where the measurement of the at least one object is based at least in part on the positional location information received by the digital image capture device at the time that the image of the scene is captured. A display device, communicatively coupled to the processor, may display the determined measurements of the at least one object.

Abstract: A power tool including a sensor attachment, a housing, a motor, and a power tool controller. The power tool controller is operable or configured to control power provided to the motor. The sensor attachment is coupled to the power tool's housing and includes a first non-contact sensor and a sensor controller. The sensor controller receives signals from the first non-contact sensor related to distance to a work surface and determines a fastener depth based on the signals from the first non-contact sensor. If the fastener depth is greater than or equal to a desired fastener depth, the sensor controller generates and sends a control signal to the power tool controller. In response, the power tool controller turns off or cuts power to the motor.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and system for processing an obstacle detection result of an ultrasonic sensor array. The method comprises: obtaining obstacle coordinates collected by ultrasonic sensors in an ultrasonic sensor array; inputting the obstacle coordinates collected by ultrasonic sensors in the ultrasonic sensor array into a pre-trained neural network model, to obtain true or false labels for the obstacle coordinates collected by the ultrasonic sensors output by the pre-trained neural network model; process the obstacle coordinates collected by the ultrasonic sensors in the ultrasonic sensor array according to the true or false labels. The present disclosure improves the accuracy in the obstacle detection of the ultrasonic sensor array, avoids detection error and omission and improves the driving safety.

Abstract: An acoustic location determination system is disclosed. The system includes one or more transmitting devices and one or more mobile devices. The transmitting device includes a first transducer configured to transmit first acoustic signals having a first frequency, and a second transducer configured to transmit second acoustic signals having a second frequency. The transmitting device further includes a beacon device configured to transmit beacon data via a short-range wireless communication technique. The transmitting device further includes one or more control devices configured to select the first or second acoustic signals based at least in part on one or more operating capabilities of one or more mobile units associated with the real-time locating system. The one or more control devices are further configured to cause transmission of the selected acoustic signals and the beacon data.

Abstract: Devices and methods for aiding a large area search for objects. A searcher transmits interrogation signals of long range relative to the return range to be received by a device at the target object. The target device responds with a ping signal modified to be more easily found by means of information contained in the interrogation signal. The information may be in the nature of the received signal or data encoded and embedded. The target device may use a microprocessor to do complex operations using the information from the interrogation signal and other information. Detection of a weak ping is facilitated by such means as being beamed in the direction of the interrogation, arriving at a predictable time, or having parameters adapted to values requested by the searcher. The object is then intercepted with help of the ping or other signals from the device.

Abstract: A real time fish movement and location guide system and method provides an output to an angler of a real time adjusted active fish depth range based upon a set of environmental conditions. Input data relating to the environmental conditions is received from the angler through a user interface and from Internet sources. In some embodiments, the input data is also used to provide outputs indicating weather fronts that will affect movement and location, and to provide lure recommendations and notifications that a change in lure is appropriate in view of changing conditions.

Abstract: Present disclosure describes an improved scaling mechanism for a multi-stage fixed-point FFT algorithm used to process signals received by radar or sonar systems. Proposed scaling includes scaling an output of every pair of consecutive butterfly stages of the FFT algorithm by a scaling factor equal to two times of the inverse of a growth factor for the pair of consecutive butterfly stages for the FFT algorithm for a purely complex exponential input signal. Besides this scaling, input signals are allowed to overflow by saturation. Such mechanism yields adequate performance of radar and sonar receivers implementing fixed-point FFTs for any types of input signals, from random to substantially complex exponential or sinusoidal signals. Proposed scaling achieves a balance between having signal to noise ratio (SNR) that is possible to obtain for a particular input signal and SNR that is needed to successfully process that signal for radar and sonar applications.
