    摘要: 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.

    摘要: 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.

    摘要: 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.

    摘要: A vehicular sensing system includes a first set of first sensors disposed at a first rear portion of a vehicle. The system includes a second set of second sensors disposed at a second rear portion of the vehicle that is above the first rear portion of the vehicle. A respective first field of sensing of at least one first sensor at least partially overlaps a respective second field of sensing of at least one second sensor. The system includes an electronic control unit (ECU) for processing sensor data to detect objects that are located within the at least partially overlapping fields of sensing of the at least one first sensor and the at least one second sensor. The vehicular sensing system, responsive to detecting the objects that are located within the at least partially overlapping fields of sensing, determines three-dimensional locations of the detected objects relative to the vehicle.

    摘要: An object detection device includes: a transmission/reception unit that has a vibrator capable of transmitting and receiving ultrasound, that causes the vibrator to transmit transmission signals at different timings, and that receives the reception signals returning after being reflected on a circumferentially existing object; an acquisition unit that acquires a first distance to the object, based on a time difference between a transmission timing of a first transmission signal and a reception timing of a first reception signal, and that acquires a relative speed of the object, based on a frequency difference between the first transmission signal and the first reception signal; an estimation unit that estimates a second distance to the object at a transmission timing of a second transmission signal to be transmitted subsequently to the first transmission signal; and an adjustment unit that adjusts the number of waves or a transmission time of the second transmission signal.
