METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DIGITAL IMAGE-REFERENCED INDIRECT TARGET AIMING
There is provided methods and systems for digital image-referenced indirect target aiming. The systems and methods of the invention measures angle of rotation of subsequent stable images from an initial Reference Image and provide an aiming that is colinear to the target's absolute azimuth.
Command control system, interceptor system, and command control method
A command control system includes an interception predicting section and an assigning section. The interception predicting section calculates a predicted intercept point of a target to be shot down and a guided missile to shoot down the target. The assigning section acquires first weather data of the predicted intercept point, and generates a launching instruction based on the first weather data so as to launch one of a first guided missile and a second guided missile as the guided missile. A method by which the first guided missile detects the target and a method by which the second guided missile detects the target are different.

CLASSIFICATION OF AUDIO AS ORIGNATING FROM A HUMAN SOURCE OR A NON-HUMAN TO AVOID FALSE WAKE-WORD DETECTION
An audio processing device that determines a correlation between a location of a source of the audio signal associated with the audio command, and a human positioned at the location of the source of the audio signal associated with the audio command. The audio command is identified as originating from the human positioned at the location based on the position data and the location of the source of the audio signal associated with the audio command correlating. Based on identifying the audio command as originating from the human positioned at the location, the audio command is executed.
Automatic locating of target marks
A target reflector search device. This device comprises an emitting unit for emitting an emission fan, a motorized device for moving the emission fan over a spatial region, and a receiving unit for reflected portions of the emission fan within a fan-shaped acquisition region, and a locating unit for determining a location of the reflection. An optoelectronic detector of the receiving unit is formed as a position-resolving optoelectronic detector having a linear arrangement of a plurality of pixels, each formed as an SPAD array, and the receiving unit comprises an optical system having an imaging fixed-focus optical unit, wherein the optical system and the optoelectronic detector are arranged and configured in such a way that portions of the optical radiation reflected from a point in the acquisition region are expanded on the sensitivity surface of the optoelectronic detector in such a way that blurry imaging takes place.

COUNTER UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEM WITH NAVIGATION DATA TO INTERCEPT AND/OR DISABLE AN UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE THREAT
A system for providing integrated detection and countermeasures against unmanned aerial vehicles include a detecting element, a location determining element and an interdiction element. The detecting element detects an unmanned aerial vehicle in flight in the region of, or approaching, a property, place, event or very important person. The location determining element determines the exact location of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The interdiction element can either direct the unmanned aerial vehicle away from the property, place, event or very important person in a non-destructive manner, or can cause disable the unmanned aerial vehicle in a destructive manner.
