20150042510 | SAR Point Cloud Generation System - The SAR Point Cloud Generation System processes synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data acquired from multiple spatially separated SAR apertures in such a manner as to be able to calculate accurate three-dimensional positions of all of the scatterers within the imaged scene. No spatial averaging is applied thus preserving the high resolution of the original SAR data, and no phase unwrapping processes are required. The effects of height ambiguities are significantly reduced in the SAR Point Cloud Generation System. The SAR Point Cloud Generation System also self-filters against mixed-height pixels that can lead to incorrect height estimates. The system estimates scatterer height by a maximization of an Interferometric Response Function. | 02-12-2015 |

20150092109 | Video Stitching System and Method - A method and computing system for receiving a first video file containing a first plurality of video frames. A second video file containing a second plurality of video frames is received. The video files are processed to identify at least one non-graphical temporal alignment object included in each of the video files. The video files are temporally aligned using the at least one non-graphical temporal alignment object to produce temporally-aligned video files. | 04-02-2015 |

20150331689 | VIRTUALIZED SOFTWARE BUILD SYSTEM - A software automation build system including a one or more source code repositories, the one or more source code repositories including source code of a software product and a source code for a build system. The source code for the build system stores a configuration specifying a build and test environment as a configuration file that can be accessed remotely by users to replicate a consistent virtual build and test environment for developing and testing code of the software product at different locations, using virtual machines. The system may include one or more instances of the build system based on the configuration. The system may save versions of the configuration so that multiple versions of the build system can be accessed and built virtually. | 11-19-2015 |
