Spatial Data Compression Using Implicit Geometry

View page
US Patent:
8525835, Sep 3, 2013
Filed:
Feb 24, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/711931
Inventors:
Yuan-Jye Wu - Issaquah WA, US
Dejan Nikic - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Chicago IL
International Classification:
G06T 15/10
US Classification:
345427, 345419, 345555
Abstract:
A plurality of data from a first coordinate system is transformed into a plurality of metadata, each metadata comprising a location identifier and a value summarizing an amount of data points in the first coordinate system associated with a corresponding location in the second coordinate identified by the location identifier. A metadata is formed only when a non-zero value is assigned to a location.

Grammar-Based, Cueing Method Of Object Recognition, And A System For Performing Same

View page
US Patent:
8483478, Jul 9, 2013
Filed:
Jan 11, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/685495
Inventors:
Swarup S. Medasani - Thousand Oaks CA, US
Yuri Owechko - Newbury Park CA, US
Thommen Korah - Marina Del Rey CA, US
Jason Wu - Issaquah WA, US
Dejan Nikic - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
HRL Laboratories, LLC - Malibu CA
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382154, 382100
Abstract:
In an embodiment, a grammar-based, cueing method of object recognition is disclosed. The method may include or comprise accessing cells that define a portion of a three-dimensional (3-D) scene, assigning occupation parameters to the cells to define a plurality of occupied cells and at least one vacant cell, and assigning localization parameters to the occupied cells based on the occupation parameters of their respective neighboring cells. The method may further include or comprise characterizing a plurality of the occupied cells as geometric cues based on their respective occupation and localization parameters, and identifying a target geometric shape associated with the geometric cues.

Charged Air Mass Measurement For Air Data Computation

View page
US Patent:
20220219833, Jul 14, 2022
Filed:
Oct 19, 2021
Appl. No.:
17/505111
Inventors:
- Chicago IL, US
Dejan Nikic - Seattle WA, US
James A. Grossnickle - Bellevue WA, US
Michelle Galgana - Burien WA, US
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Chicago IL
International Classification:
B64D 43/02
G01P 5/08
G01C 5/00
G01K 7/00
Abstract:
Systems and methods for enabling charged (ionized) air mass measurement for reliable air data computation onboard an aircraft. Ionic charge sensing may be used to derive air data having improved reliability. The systems and methods for ionic charge sensing employ an emitter electrode and two or more collector electrodes, which electrodes are disposed in proximity to the exterior skin of the aircraft and exposed to ambient air. The emitter electrode is positioned forward of the collector electrodes. The system further includes a solid-state ionic air data module that converts currents from the collector electrodes into air data parameter values. More specifically, the ionic air data module is configured to sense currents induced in the collector electrodes in response to corona discharge produced by the high-voltage emitter electrode.

Optical Resonators That Utilize Plasma Confinement Of A Laser Gain Media

View page
US Patent:
20190364655, Nov 28, 2019
Filed:
May 22, 2018
Appl. No.:
15/986201
Inventors:
- Chicago IL, US
Dejan Nikic - Seattle WA, US
International Classification:
H05H 1/06
H05H 1/48
H01S 3/097
H01S 3/225
H01S 3/036
H01S 3/032
Abstract:
Laser amplification utilizing plasma confinement of a gas laser gain media is described. The gas laser gain media is compressed into plasma utilizing a self-reinforcing magnetic field referred to a plasma pinch (e.g., a flow stabilized z-pinch). In the plasma pinch, the gas laser gain media is compressed to a high density, which improves the gain of the media. An optical resonator partially surrounds the plasma pinch and utilizes the laser gain media compressed within the plasma pinch to generate an output of coherent light.

US Patent:
20190170700, Jun 6, 2019
Filed:
Dec 4, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/830469
Inventors:
- Chicago IL, US
Alan F. Stewart - Burien WA, US
Dejan Nikic - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
The Boeing Company - Chicago IL
International Classification:
G01N 29/24
Abstract:
A nondestructive bond strength testing method, including: coupling an expendable device to a structure under test, the expendable device including a patterned planar array of exploding bridge wires; simultaneously vaporizing the patterned planar array of exploding bridge wires by applying a pulse of electrical energy to the patterned planar array of exploding bridge wires; and sensing an initial disbonding signature of the structure under test.

Large Surface Magnetic Field Sensor Array

US Patent:
20190041236, Feb 7, 2019
Filed:
Aug 7, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/671004
Inventors:
- Chicago IL, US
Dejan Nikic - Seattle WA, US
International Classification:
G01D 5/14
G01R 33/07
G01R 33/36
G01R 33/00
G01B 7/02
Abstract:
A plurality of magnetic field sensors (), for example arranged in an array (), is operative to measure changes in magnetic field strength proximate the surface(s) () of a test structure (). The test structure () may approximate the geometry of an airplane fuselage, wing, or the like. An electric current is applied to the test structure (), and the magnetic field sensors () sense changes in a magnetic field caused by the current. A corresponding plurality of integrators () convert the sensor () outputs to magnetic field strength values. From the plurality of magnetic field strength values and corresponding sensor locations (), a current density over the target surface () is inferred.

US Patent:
20190032603, Jan 31, 2019
Filed:
Jul 31, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/665227
Inventors:
- Chicago IL, US
James A. Grossnickle - Bellevue WA, US
Dejan Nikic - Seattle WA, US
Kevin G. Bowcutt - Aliso Viejo CA, US
International Classification:
F02K 7/14
B64D 27/16
F23R 3/28
F23R 3/02
Abstract:
A scramjet includes a converging inlet, a combustor configured to introduce a fuel stream into an air stream in a combustion chamber and to combust the fuel air mixture stream to create an exhaust stream, and a diverging exit nozzle configured to accelerate the exhaust stream. The combustor includes a fuel injection system including at least one arcjet. A method of creating thrust for an aircraft includes compressing a supersonic incoming air stream in a converging inlet, injecting a fuel stream into the air stream in a combustion chamber to create a fuel air mixture stream, igniting the fuel air mixture stream to create an exhaust stream, and exhausting the exhaust stream from a diverging exit nozzle. The injecting the fuel stream into the air stream includes injecting the fuel stream at a fuel speed sufficient to create shear between the fuel stream and the air stream.

James A. Grossnickle - Bellevue WA, US
Dejan Nikic - Seattle WA, US
International Classification:
H01S 3/036

The gas laser gain media is compressed into plasma utilizing a self-reinforcing magnetic field referred to a plasma pinch (e.g., a flow stabilized z-pinch). In the pinch, the gas laser gain media is compressed to a high density, which improves the gain of the media. Coherent light is transmitted through the plasma pinch, which is amplified by the plasma pinch.
