Filed:

Nov 29, 2012

Appl. No.:

13/689495

Inventors:

Andrew Fannon Lamkin - Albuquerque NM, US
Duke Buster - Albuquerque NM, US

Assignee:

HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC. - Morristown NJ

International Classification:

G01S 13/93

US Classification:

342 29

Abstract:

A ground crew collision-avoidance system includes a plurality of radar sensor modules that each emit a radar signal, receives at a radar detector radar return signals corresponding to reflections of the emitted signal from a ground object, and transmits radar information associated with the received radar signal reflections reflected from the ground object, wherein each of the plurality of radar sensor modules are uniquely located on a surface of an aircraft that is at risk for collision with a ground object while the aircraft is being towed; a gateway unit that receives the radar information transmitted from the radar sensor module and transmits information associated with the received radar information; and a ground crew alert indicator that receives the information transmitted by the gateway unit and that presents a graphical alert icon on a display. The display indicates a likelihood of collision between the aircraft and the ground object.

US Classification:

701301

Abstract:

Systems and methods for performing airport surface collision-avoidance. A wingtip-mounted camera allows the pilot to positively ascertain that the wingtip will clear objects located in the video. An exemplary system implemented on an aircraft includes a wingtip module having a camera that generates a video stream and a communication device that transmits the generated video stream. A processor receives the video stream and generates a reticule for the video stream. A display device simultaneously presents the video stream and the reticule. The reticule includes a horizon line and is based on a focal length of a lens of the camera and height of the camera above ground. The reticule includes curved and/or straight distance lines and curved or straight travel lines. The travel line(s) correspond to at least one aircraft component or a zone of importance and are based on location of the camera and trajectory of the aircraft.

Inventors:

Andrew Fannon Lamkin - Albuquerque NM, US

International Classification:

A01K 15/02
A01K 27/00

US Classification:

119720, 119859

Abstract:

A canine directional command system includes a directional command collar assembly configured for releasable securement around the neck of a canine. The collar assembly includes a plurality of command stimulation units, preferably including three vibration command stimulation units, and one combination vibration/electrical command stimulation unit. The collar assembly is positioned on the neck of a canine so that the stimulation units are respectively positioned at the front, rear, left, and right areas of the neck of the canine. A wireless transmitter of the command system permits selective operation of the stimulation units of the collar assembly, thereby permitting a handler of the canine to provide directional commands and signals to the canine, without resort to verbal or visual commands.

International Classification:

G08B 21/04
A01K 29/00

Abstract:

Embodiments of a system and method for method for automatically determining pet owner interaction with a pet are generally described herein. A method may include obtaining sensor data including pet behavior metrics from a sensor, aggregating the sensor data, and interpreting the aggregated sensor data to determine an engagement factor of a pet owner to a pet. The method may include outputting a report based on the engagement factor or the aggregated sensor data.

Abstract:

Various techniques for performing camera control techniques based on brainwave data from an electroencephalography (EEG) headset are disclosed herein. In an example, a computing system operates to receive brainwave data representing brainwave activity, process the brainwave data, and transmit a command to a camera device based on the processed brainwave data. For example, the brainwave data may correlate to raw brainwave signals (from gamma, beta, alpha, theta, or delta brainwaves), or composite brainwave signals (from multiple brainwaves, representative of attention, meditation, or like states). As a result, the computing system may transmit a command to a camera device to capture an image, a burst of images, start/stop video recording, or like commands for image and video operations, based on a human user's detected brainwave state. Further processing, detection, and training methods for brainwave control of camera operations are also disclosed.

Abstract:

A system is configured to generate and display information regarding a strike zone of an aircraft. In some examples, a system is configured to generate and display an image of an environment around an aircraft together with a graphical indication of a strike zone of the aircraft, where the indication is scaled to reflect the strike zone at a distance range of one or more detected objects.

Abstract:

In sonic examples, an obstacle detection system is configured to generate and display a graphical user interface (GUI) that includes an overhead image of an area in which a vehicle is positioned, a graphical representation of the vehicle, and graphical representations of one or more obstacles, The graphical representations of the one or more obstacles and vehicle can be arranged relative to the overhead image to indicate determined real-world positions of the one or more obstacles and vehicle, respectively, relative to other features shown in the overhead (e.g., airport structure or other buildings).
