Title: Sol M Cruz-Rivera and His Foliage-Penetrating LIDAR Invention.
Introduction
Sol M Cruz-Rivera is an inventor associated with Woodbridge, Virginia. His patent work addresses how airborne LIDAR data can be processed to identify terrain obscured by foliage.
Latest Patents
Cruz-Rivera is credited with 1 patent, titled “Foliage Penetration Based on 4D LIDAR Datasets.” The method receives three-dimensional point-cloud data collected from an airborne platform, reformats it into a one-dimensional signal, and applies a wavelet transform. It then reconstructs the transformed signal as a low-pass-filtered profile and classifies that profile as terrain, such as natural terrain or a ground profile.
Career Highlights
Cruz-Rivera is associated with Exelis Inc. His patent describes a signal-processing approach for extracting terrain information from LIDAR measurements when foliage obscures the ground.
Collaborations
The provided information identifies Pedro J Sanchez-Reyes and Javier Mendez-Rodriguez as Cruz-Rivera’s coworkers.
Conclusion
Sol M Cruz-Rivera’s patent presents a method for using wavelet-based processing of airborne LIDAR data to distinguish terrain beneath foliage.
