Generally, the present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for streaming processing within one or more systems of an autonomy computing system. When an update for a particular object or region of interest is received by a given system, the system can control transmission of data associated with the update as well as a determination of other aspects by the given system. For example, the system can determine based on a received update for a particular aspect and a priority classification and/or interaction classification determined for that aspect whether data associated with the update should be transmitted to a subsequent system before waiting for other updates to arrive.

A detection device is adapted to traverse a search area and generate sensor data associated with an object that may be present in the search area, the detection device comprising a first logic device configured to detect and classify the object in the sensor data, communicate object detection information to a control system when the detection device is within a range of communications of the control system, and generate and store object analysis information for a user of the control system when the detection device is not in communication with the control system. A control system facilitates user monitoring and/or control of the detection device during operation and to access the stored object analysis information. The object analysis information is provided in an interactive display to facilitate user detection and classification of the detected object by the user to update the detection information, trained object classifier, and training dataset.

This document describes techniques and systems for generating a fused object bounding box based on uncertainty. At least two bounding boxes, each associated with a different sensor, is generated. A fused center point and yaw angle as well as length, width, and velocity can be found by mixing the distributions of the parameters from each bounding box. A discrepancy between the center points of each bounding box can be used to determine whether to refine the fused bounding box (e.g., find an intersection between at least two bounding boxes) or consolidate the fused bounding box (e.g., find a union between at least two bounding boxes). This results in the fused bounding box having a confidence level of the uncertainty associated with the fused bounding box. In this manner, better estimations of the uncertainty of the fused bounding box may be achieved to improve tracking performance of a sensor fusion system.

A surveying instrument for executing a relocation functionality, which determines first coordinates of a stationary target point associated with the start signal, in response to a start signal, a first actuator and a second actuator are controlled such that the stationary target point remains within a detection area of a tracking unit of the surveying instrument, determines second coordinates of the stationary target point, receives an end signal, wherein the second coordinates of the stationary target point are associated with the end signal, and based at least in part on the first and second coordinates of the stationary target point, and determines a relative pose of the surveying instrument with respect to a first setup location and a second setup location, wherein the first setup location is associated with the first coordinates and the second setup location is associated with the second coordinates.

A dual-use electromagnetic beam system may be used as a remote power delivery system when not needed as an offensive weapon. For example, a system for disabling or destroying uncooperative or enemy assets such as UAVs or ground vehicles may be used during “down time” to provide power to assets that are separated from prime power sources by distance or by logistics.
