VEHICLE TEMPERATURE SENSOR SYSTEMS
A vehicle having a system which includes at least one sensor contained therein. The systems utilizes conditional probability to determine if an occupant (i.e. child and/or animal) is in the vehicle in the absence of an adult. The system used conditional probability to predict the likelihood that a child and/or animal was left unsupervised within the vehicle. The system collects data from existing vehicle sensors (door sensor, weight sensor, seatbelt sensor, face detection sensor, input sensors or any other suitable sensor already imbedded within the hardware of the vehicle) and uses that data to assume if an adult, child and/or animal is present. A motion sensor and a temperature sensor (infrared camera) are further utilized to determine the presence of a child/animal and the temperature of a child. Input from the motion sensor and/or temperature sensor (infrared camera) are utilized to provide warnings or to take corrective measures.
INTERIOR POSITIONING SYSTEM FOR TRACKING COMMUNICATION DEVICES WITHIN A REMOTE LOCATION, AND METHOD THEREFORE
There is described an interior positioning system for tracking spatial position of communication devices within a remote location. The interior positioning system generally has: a radio frequency network distributed through said remote location; beacons spaced-apart from one another throughout said remote location and powered by said radio frequency network, each beacon locally emitting a corresponding beacon identifier which when received by a nearby communication device is communicated over said radio frequency network by said communication device; and a tracking controller being communicatively coupled to said radio frequency network, said tracking controller stored thereon tracking data associating each of said beacon identifiers to respective spatial coordinates, and instructions that when executed perform the steps of: receiving said beacon identifier communicated over said radio frequency network by said communication device, and determining spatial coordinates of said communication device by cross referencing said received beacon identifier to said tracking data.
METHOD FOR DETECTING PEOPLE AND/OR OBJECTS IN THE INTERIOR OF A MOTOR VEHICLE AND MOTOR VEHICLE
A method for detecting people and/or objects in the interior of a transportation vehicle, wherein people and/or objects in the interior of the transportation vehicle are detected by at least two UWB antennas which are each arranged in or on different doors of the transportation vehicle and used for communication with at least one ID transmitter and/or a remote control, at least for locking and unlocking the doors, and wherein signals acquired using the at least two UWB antennas are evaluated via a control device and an evaluation result is delivered. Also disclosed is a transportation vehicle.
Detection and tracking of land, maritime, and airborne objects using a radar on a parasail
A method and apparatuses may be provided for detection, tracking, and classification of one or more land, maritime, or airborne objects using a real-aperture radar mounted on a parasail airborne platform. Both wide-area and localized radar surveillance can be provided, and the radar can be either a non-coherent radar or coherent radar. A method and apparatus may use a low-cost, rotating, single-beam, non-coherent, X-band radar that is mounted on an unmanned powered parasail and operated remotely like an Unattended Airborne System (UAS). The parasail, which may be expendable or recoverable, manned or unmanned, powered or unpowered, may have a low operational cost, can carry a heavy payload, stay on station for a long time, circle or move to a specified location for surveillance, operate at an optimal altitude and look-angle, and automatically cue or manually steer an EO/IR camera to a target of interest for classification and identification.
Non-contact monitoring system and method thereof
The present invention provides a non-contact monitoring system, including: a radar detection module, an infrared sensing module, a micro control unit and a communication module. The radar detection module transmits a radar detection signal via the radar antenna to an area, receives a radar reflection signal from the area, and transmits the radar reflection signal to the micro control unit. The infrared sensing module detects a heat source of an organism in the area, and transmits an infrared sensing signal to the micro control unit. The micro control unit receives and processes the radar reflection signal transmitted by the radar detection module and the infrared sensing signal transmitted by the infrared sensing module, and transmits an alarm signal to the communication module. The communication module receives the alarm signal transmitted by the micro control unit, and transmits the alarm signal to a remote monitoring end via the antenna.

Both the number of times of processing the sensor data and the number of times of processing the sensing result can be reduced, and the early warning information is output based on the driving assistance system.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETECTING OCCUPANCY USING RADIO SIGNALS
A sensor system for determining occupancy in a space generally includes a transmitter radio device that transmits radio signals over a channel in the space; a receiver radio device that receives the transmitted radio signals that have traveled through the space; and at least one processor implementing an occupancy-centric algorithm that determines occupancy in the space based on the radio signals. The at least one processor determines channel state information based on the radio signals transmitted over the channel, determines occupancy in the space based on the channel state information, and outputs an occupancy signal based on the determined occupancy.
System for survival detection in dangerous space
The present invention relates to a system for survival detection in a dangerous space. According to the present invention, the survival and location of a subject located in a dangerous space can be effectively detected from the outside according to ultra-wideband (UWB) radar.
METHOD, DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR SNOW PROFILE MEASUREMENT
Methods, devices and computer systems utilize ground penetrating radar (GPR) embedded in or mounted on a ski or other equipment that is in contact with the snow during use device in order to obtain snow profile data from layers of snow or ice. A GPR device may include a trained model capable of deriving snow profile information based on GPR data and may also be capable of uploading GPR data to an online service. The online service can use the received GPR data to derive snow profile information, distribute snow profile information to user devices, and generate and distribute updated trained models. The online service may access online repositories of additional information and refine the snow profile information or the trained model based on such addition information. Generated snow profile information can be used to provide avalanche risk assessments.
Radar detection in environments with disturbing elements
Herein disclosed is a method for radar detection of a valid target within a monitored zone with disturbing elements passing therethrough, e.g. process scraps of a machine on which the radar system is installed. The method includes transmitting, receiving and processing radar signals to locate and track the movement of a moving potential target. The method discriminates whether the potential target is valid or not, by checking whether the potential target has an initial position within a disturbance zone and whether it is detected for an overall detection time period that is less than the assessment time interval. If a target is not valid, it will be assimilated to background after it stops.
