OBJECT DETECTION DEVICE AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18591472 titled 'OBJECT DETECTION DEVICE AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME
The abstract describes an object detection device that converts transmission signals radiated towards an object into digital signals and processes received signals reflected from the object to generate a three-dimensional image.
- The device includes a converter that converts transmission and received signals into digital form.
- A processor interpolates between elements of the digital signals to obtain interpolated transmission and received signals.
- Noise is removed from the interpolated signals to improve signal quality.
- A cross-correlation signal is generated between the interpolated transmission and received signals.
- A three-dimensional image of the object is acquired based on peak values of the cross-correlation signal.
Potential Applications: - Surveillance systems - Autonomous vehicles - Robotics - Medical imaging - Industrial inspection
Problems Solved: - Accurate object detection - Noise reduction in signals - Improved image quality - Enhanced data processing efficiency
Benefits: - High precision in object detection - Improved signal clarity - Enhanced performance in various applications - Increased reliability and safety
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Object Detection Device for Enhanced Surveillance and Imaging This technology can be used in surveillance systems, autonomous vehicles, medical imaging devices, and industrial inspection equipment.

Original Abstract Submitted
An object detection device may include: a converter configured to convert a transmission signal radiated towards an object into a digital transmission signal and a received signal reflected from the object into a digital received signal, according to a predetermined sampling period; and at least one processor configured to: interpolate between elements of the digital transmission signal and the digital received signal that have the predetermined sampling period, to obtain an interpolated transmission signal and an interpolated received signal; remove noise from each of the interpolated transmission signal and the interpolated received signal; generate a cross-correlation signal between the interpolated transmission signal from which the noise is removed and the interpolated received signal from which the noise is removed; and acquire a three-dimensional (3D) image of the object based on at least one peak value of the cross-correlation signal.
