US Patent:

7581452, Sep 1, 2009
Filed:

Jan 3, 2008
Appl. No.:

11/968867
Inventors:

Sergey Sandomirsky - Irvine CA, US
Tomasz Jannson - Torrance CA, US
Paul Shnitser - Irvine CA, US
Gajendra Savant - Rolling Hills Estates CA, US
Assignee:

Physical Optics Corporation - Torrance CA
International Classification:

G01N 3/24
US Classification:

73841, 73760
Abstract:

A system and method for characterizing soil shear strength from a vehicle, comprises a plurality of sensors mounted on a vehicle and configured to measure distances from the sensors to the soil surface. The sensors comprise a first sensor disposed on the vehicle and configured to measure a first distance between the first sensor and the soil and a second sensor disposed on the vehicle and configure to measure a second distance between a the sensor and a track made in the soil by the vehicle, wherein the first sensor measures the distance at a location before the vehicle wheel travels over that location and the second sensor measures the distance to the bottom of the track made by the wheel. A processing module is communicatively coupled to the sensors and is configured to calculate track depth as a function of the first and second distance measurements; and to derive soil shear strength as a function of the calculated track depth and the vehicle parameters.

F42B 15/00
US Classification:

244 316, 244 31, 244 315, 89 111, 102200, 102206, 102211, 102213, 342 13, 342 14, 342 16, 398 39, 370203
Abstract:

An optical impact system controls munitions termination through sensing proximity to a target and preventing effects of countermeasures on false munitions termination. Embodiments can be implemented on in a variety of munitions such as small and mid caliber that can be applicable in non-lethal weapons and in weapons of high lethality with airburst capability for example and in guided air-to-ground and cruise missiles. Embodiments can improve accuracy, reliability and lethality of munitions depending on its designation without modification in a weapon itself and make the weapon resistant to optical countermeasures.

Filed:

Apr 27, 2000
Appl. No.:

09/560412
Inventors:

Paul I. Shnitser - Irvine CA
Sergey Sandomirsky - Irvine CA
Ilya Agurok - Long Beach CA
Aramais Avakian - Pasadena CA
Assignee:

Physical Optics Corporation - Torrance CA
International Classification:

G06T 900
US Classification:

382103, 382191, 382261, 382274
Abstract:

A system and method for real time optical processing of images by simultaneous combining the variable set of images in selected spectral intervals. Spectral images at a plurality of spectral intervals are collected if needed. According to criteria established in a particular application, coefficients for an optimal combination of selected spectral intervals are calculated. Positive and negative images are continuously captured through the optical filter whose transmission spectrum adjusted to positive and negative coefficients of the optimal combination. Negative images are subtracted from positive images and a sequence of resulting optimized images is displayed in real time.
