TIME SYNCHRONIZED SENSOR DATA FOR ROBOTICS SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240427372 titled 'TIME SYNCHRONIZED SENSOR DATA FOR ROBOTICS SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS
Original Abstract Submitted
in various examples, sets of correlated timestamps are sampled from clock sources. the sets of correlated timestamps are used to compute translation data, such as offsets and/or rates of change of the clock sources. the offsets and/or rates of change may be used to translate a timestamp to a reference time domain. the sampled clock sources may be frequency locked and the translation may be performed without using the rates of change. for example, a running average of the offsets may be used to perform the translation. the translated timestamps and corresponding sensor measurements may be provided to one or more applications for use in performing one or more operations for a machine, such as perception and/or control operations.
