Title: The Innovative Contributions of Kristian Morin

Introduction

Kristian Morin is a notable inventor based in Calgary, Canada, recognized for his significant contributions to the field of heavy equipment navigation and control systems. With a total of 10 patents to his name, Morin has developed innovative solutions that enhance the efficiency and accuracy of heavy machinery operations.

Latest Patents

Among his latest patents is a system and method for heavy equipment navigation and working edge positioning using an image acquisition device that provides distance information. This invention offers a method for automatically controlling working edges on heavy equipment vehicles. It utilizes a GNSS/INS system to determine the vehicle's location, while a vision system calculates the working edge's position by capturing images of a target connected to the working edge. The location information is then transformed to the navigation system's coordinate system, allowing for precise control of the working edge.

Another significant patent is the system and method for calculating lever arm values photogrammetrically. This technique involves using a calibrated camera to capture multiple images of the GNSS/INS system, including a target with known attributes and control points. An application on the device then determines the lever arm values from these images, enabling the INS to combine information from the GNSS receiver with sensor data to compute updated positions, velocities, and orientations.
