20110241926 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR REDUCING LIGHT POLLUTION - A system for preventing light pollution includes one or more radar units that monitor for vehicles in a volume surrounding or containing one or more obstructions having one or more obstruction lights. A master radar detection processing unit receives sensed radar detection information from the one or more radar units with associated radar signal processing units and determines whether a vehicle is present within the monitored volume. A plurality of obstruction light controller units are interconnected in a network, such as a wireless network. Each obstruction light controller unit turns on an obstruction light when a vehicle enters the monitored volume or a failure condition exists, and turns off the obstruction light when the vehicle has vacated the monitored volume and no failure condition exists. The one or more radar units can transmit sensed radar detection information to a master radar detection processing unit via the network. | 10-06-2011 |

20150309165 | Detecting Radar Blockage Based on Drive History - A vehicle includes a radar sensor for detecting objects in the vehicle path. The radar sensor may become blocked by contaminants or debris. A controller monitoring the radar system may detect a radar blockage when a return signal magnitude is less than a threshold. A typical response may be to set a radar blockage diagnostic under such a condition. The controller may inhibit setting a radar blockage diagnostic when other data indicates that the radar sensor is not blocked. Data such as vehicle position, traffic information, camera images, and historical radar returns may be used. A controller may confirm a radar blockage diagnostic when other data indicates that the radar sensor may be blocked. Data such as temperature, vehicle position, surface roughness, automated brake interventions, and heating system status may be used. Return signal dependent functions may be operated based on the radar blockage diagnostic. | 10-29-2015 |
20160025850 | Autonomous Robotic Mobile Threat Security System - A system for providing autonomous robotic mobile threat security is disclosed. The system may perform an operation that includes receiving sensor information associated with an environment surrounding an object, such as a maritime vessel, where the sensor information is associated with a contact. The system may transform the contact information into track data corresponding to a track associated with the contact. Additionally, the system may compute, based on the track data, a confidence level for the track. The confidence level can indicate a representation of the degree to which a threatening behavior is exhibited by the contact as indicated by the track. The system may then determine if the confidence level for the track is at least as great as a threshold confidence level. If the confidence level is determined to be at least as great as the threshold confidence level, the system may classify the track as a threat. Finally, the system may employ a countermeasure against the threat. | 01-28-2016 |
