US Patent 12072466 Detecting dark objects in stray light halos

Systems and techniques for detecting feature(s) and object(s) partially or completely obscured by stray light effects in the visible light spectrum are discussed herein. Non-visible light can be emitted from emitters. Light from an environment including visible and non-visible light can be captured at a sensing system via a lens system. The sensing system can filter the captured light using a dual band-pass filter to direct certain non-visible and visible light spectra to a beam splitter that then directs the non-visible light to a non-visible light sensor and the visible light to a visible light sensor. The sensor data generated by the non-visible light sensor can then be used to identify and classify feature(s) and object(s) that may be obscured by stray light effects in the data generated by the visible light sensor.
