SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of the Air Force may grant
the prospective license unless a timely objection is received that
sufficiently shows the grant of the license would be inconsistent with
the Bayh-Dole Act or implementing regulations. A competing application
for a patent license agreement, completed in compliance with 37 CFR
404.8 and received by the Air Force within the period for timely
objections, will be treated as an objection and may be considered as an
alternative to the proposed license.
Abstract of Patents and Patent Application(s)
A new apparatus and method for tracking a moving object with a
moving camera provides a real-time, narrow fieldof-view, high
resolution and on target image by combining commanded motion with an
optical flow algorithm for deriving motion and classifying background.
Commanded motion means that movement of the pan, tilt and zoom (PTZ)
unit is ``commanded'' by a computer, instead of being observed by the
camera, so that the pan, tilt and zoom parameters are known, as opposed
to having to be determined, significantly reducing the computational
requirements for tracking a moving object. The present invention
provides a single camera pan and tilt system where the known pan and
tilt rotations are used to calculate predicted optical flow points in
sequential images, so that resulting apparent movement can be
subtracted from the movement determined by an optical flow algorithm to
determine actual movement, following by use of a Kalman filter
algorithm to predict subsequent locations of a determined moving object
and command the pan and tilt unit to point the camera in that
direction.
Intellectual Property
U.S. Patent No. U.S. Patent No. 9,696,404 B1, that issued on July
4, 2017, and entitled ``Real-time camera tracking system using optical
flow feature points.''.
The Department of the Air Force may grant the prospective license
unless a timely objection is received that sufficiently shows the grant
of the license would be inconsistent with the Bayh-Dole Act or
implementing regulations. A competing application for a patent license
agreement, completed in compliance with 37 CFR 404.8 and received by
the Air Force within the period for timely objections, will be treated
as an objection and may be considered as an alternative to the proposed
license.
