Traffic radar system with patrol vehicle speed detection
A traffic radar system comprises a first radar transceiver, a second radar transceiver, a speed determining element, and a processing element. The first radar transceiver transmits and receives radar beams and generates a first electronic signal corresponding to the received radar beam. The second radar transceiver transmits and receives radar beams and generates a second electronic signal corresponding to the received radar beam. The speed determining element determines and outputs a speed of the patrol vehicle. The processing element is configured to receive a plurality of digital data samples derived from the first or second electronic signals, receive the speed of the patrol vehicle, process the digital data samples to determine a relative speed of at least one target vehicle in the front zone or the rear zone, and convert the relative speed of the target vehicle to an absolute speed using the speed of the patrol vehicle.

Personnel location and monitoring system
A personnel location and monitoring system enables on-scene commanders in austere environments to identify, location and manage personnel. The present invention establishes a localized network of geolocation-capable transceivers which can thereafter provide communication capabilities with specially-equipped users as they ingress and egress an austere environment. Each user is equipped with an Individual Geospatial Locational Unit which provides data via a datalink with one or more of the anchors, and ultimately with a base station. From such data and the datalink itself the location of the user as well as the user's biomedical condition can be ascertained. As confidence of the location of the user drops below a predetermined threshold and/or the biomedical condition of the user raises concern with respect to the user's well-being, the present invention modifies the communication and geolocation protocols to prioritize communication and data transfer with such a user.

DATA SYSTEMS FOR WEARABLE AUGMENTED REALITY APPARATUS
Described herein are embodiments of methods and apparatuses for an augmented reality system wherein a wearable augmented reality apparatus may efficiently manage and transfer data and approximate the position of its wearer and the perceived position of a virtual avatar in space. The embodiments may include methods of using data from various external or embedded sensors to estimate and/or determine fields related to the user, apparatus, and/or the avatar. The embodiments may further include methods by which the apparatus can approximate the perceived position of the apparatus and the avatar relative to the user when no predefined path is specified. The embodiments may further include methods by which information about a user's path is compressed and transferred.

Devices with network-connected scopes for allowing a target to be simultaneously tracked by multiple other devices
A network of scopes, including one or more lead scopes and one or more follower scopes, is provided to allow the respective scopes to track the same presumed target. A lead scope locates a target and communicates target position data of the presumed target to the follower scope. The follower scope uses the target position data and its own position data to generate electronic control signals for use by follower scope to make position movements so as to re-position the follower scope from its current target position to move towards the target position defined by the target position data received from the lead scope. At least the second scope is mounted to, or integrated into, a vehicle, which uses the target position data to move to a new location so as to allow the second scope to better view the target.
