Patent 11190724 was granted and assigned to Raytheon on November, 2021 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A sensor data processing apparatus can be coupled to multiple image sensors of different types. The apparatus adjusts frame transmission rates based on the number of sensors and type of image data sourced by the sensors to optimize utilization of bandwidth on a number of transport channels. The apparatus can be configured to transport selected frames in the image data that are identified as critical frames at a higher rate than non-selected frames in the image data.
