Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for measuring, assessing, predicting, improving and presenting the state of physical object temperatures using imaging devices, e.g., a thermal infrared camera, and/or intruders in a region of interest to an operator, such that little or no operator effort is required to install, use or receive reports from the system. The invention also includes, for example, means and methods for exploiting autonomous operation and configuration, placement at remote sites, enhancement of image resolution and estimation of range such that accuracy of results and autonomy of operation is enhanced.

Abstract: A comprehensive system designed for the predictive maintenance of railcar wheel bearings, integrating multiple sensor modalities. The system includes thermography for temperature mapping, vibration analysis via a three-axis accelerometer, rotational velocity measurement using a rate gyro, and optical spectrometry for lubricant analysis. Each modality contributes to a holistic understanding of bearing health, enhancing maintenance strategies, safety, and operational efficiency in rail transportation.

Abstract: A stationary sensing system configured to analyze a passing high-velocity object. The system includes a stationary housing, a velocity sensor, and a localization sensor. The system further includes an optical assembly including uncooled imaging device(s) having a moving field of view, configured to capture images within the collective moving field of view, and a controller coupled to the uncooled imaging devices, configured to accept a velocity and a location, actuate the uncooled imaging devices to lock the field of view to the location of the object rotate it at a velocity matching the velocity of the object, and actuate the uncooled imaging devices to capture images within the moving field of view. The system further includes a computing device communicatively coupled to the optical assembly, configured to accept the images from the uncooled imaging devices and analyze properties of the object based on the images.

Abstract: A thermal camera system configured for Red-Green-Blue (RGB) to thermal image mapping and calibration of a thermal camera. The system may comprise a plurality of thermal cameras connected in a daisy-chain formation, and a computing device communicatively coupled to the base thermal camera. The computing device configured to accept a distorted RGB image, convert it into an array image, undistort the array image into an undistorted RGB image through use of a barrel transformation, map each corner element of the plurality of corner elements to a predefined coordinate to generate a thermal angular mapping, and map the thermal angular mapping to a distorted thermal image by a 2nd-degree parabola mapping process.
