| 20100296703 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETECTING AND CLASSIFYING MOVING TARGETS - Horizontal velocity profile sensing techniques, methods and systems may be used to detect and classify moving targets, including but not limited to a person, an animal, or a vehicle, or any other object that lends itself to characterization. Such techniques, methods and systems may be implemented with an autonomous stand-alone device, for example, as an unattended ground sensor, or it may constitute part of a sensor system. An exemplary illustrative non-limiting implementation allows the device to be fixed to a location, while detecting and classifying moving targets. In another exemplary illustrative non-limiting implementation, the device may be placed on a moving or rotating platform and used to detect stationary objects. | 11-25-2010 |
