Abstract: A vehicle-based radio frequency hardware component comprises first and second antennas, a digitizer, a serializer, and a serial output. The first antenna receives, over-the-air, a first analog Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal in a first frequency band. The second antenna receives, over-the-air, at least a second analog GNSS signal in a second frequency band. The first frequency band and the second frequency band are separate and distinct. The digitizer digitizes the first analog GNSS signal into a first digitalized GNSS signal and the second analog GNSS signal into a second digitized GNSS signal. The serializer serializes the digitized GNSS signals into a serialized output signal. The serial output communicatively couples the digitized GNSS signals, as the serialized output signal, directly from a location in a vehicle of the radio frequency hardware component to a separate communication device also coupled with the vehicle.

Abstract: A smart device is disclosed which contains a digital camera with an active electronic viewscreen that displays the detected image, in which the camera can sense laser light beams. The smart device has the capability receiving and executing an application program that allows the camera to be used as a grade elevation detector, in which the camera can sense a laser light beam that effectively forms a plane of laser light which defines an "on- grade" elevation for a jobsite. The user can determine this on-grade elevation by running the APP and viewing the display screen to find the (rotating or static) laser beam. An automated APP system can capture the on-grade elevation using a sequence of images that include a grade rod measurement paired with laser beam intensity detection images.

Abstract: A method and system for long-life asset tracking is disclosed. One example utilizes an activation module to provide an activation signal to at least a portion of the long-life asset tracker. A position determiner receives the activation signal and determines a location of the long-life asset tracker with a first level of accuracy or a second level of accuracy, wherein the second level of accuracy is more accurate than the first level of accuracy and wherein a default mode of operation is to utilize a radio locator for position determination instead of a navigation satellite system module to extend the life of a power source of the long-life asset tracker. An information provider module to broadcast the location of the long-life asset tracker is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method of projecting an image onto a viewing surface (64) uses scanning projector, such as a laser-beam-steering pico projector (46), which scans a laser beam across the viewing surface. Each pixel area (62) on the viewing surface which is included within images defined by a high intensity display digital video data, and each pixel area on the viewing surface which is included within images defined by a low intensity display digital video data are scanned. The projector beam (70) illuminates each pixel area on the viewing surface which is included within images defined by the high intensity display digital video data for a greater period of time than is spent illuminating each pixel area on the viewing surface which is included within images defined by other digital video data.

Abstract: The present technology involves a GNSS rover having a data receiver, a position processor and a vector error reverser. The data receiver receives GNSS position-determination reference data based on a reference erroneous position having one or more keyed intentional errors made confidential with confidential error keys. The position processor uses the GNSS position-determination reference data to determine a rover erroneous position corresponding to the reference erroneous position. The vector error reverser uses confidential access to at least one confidential error key to reverse the corresponding confidential keyed intentional error in the rover erroneous position to determine a subscribed rover position.

Abstract: A system is described that has a first engine configured to determine an assignment of a resource to a task. The assignment is based on a schedule representation comprising at least resource profile data and task profile data. The resource profile data represents a resource profile associated with the resource and the task profile data represents a task profile associated with the task. The system also has a data store configured to store a set of rules, the set of rules comprising data indicative of one or more functions to be applied to one or more input data sources to output at least one variable value for the schedule representation. This then allows a second engine coupled to the data store to be configured to update the schedule representation in accordance with the set of rules.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a crop feeler system automatically executes a navigational task based on a proximity of a vehicle to an obstacle. The crop feeler system includes a hub attached to the vehicle. Inside the hub are two oscillating circuits each having an oscillating frequency. A member is coupled to the hub. Two inductive elements are positioned within the member so that, when the obstacle comes into contact with the member, at least one of the inductive elements moves closer to at least one of the oscillating circuits and alters the oscillating frequency of that oscillating circuit. A navigation sensor measures the oscillating frequency of the oscillating circuit, identifies a navigational task using the oscillating frequency of the oscillating circuit, and executes the navigational task.
