Navigational deployment and initialization systems and methods

摘要

A navigational deployment and initialization system, including: at least one personal inertial navigation module associated with at least one user and comprising a plurality of sensors and at least one controller configured to generate navigation data derived at least in part upon output of the plurality of sensors and at least one navigation routine; at least one deployment recognition device configured to directly or indirectly receive at least one of the following: user data, time data, event data, navigation data, or any combination thereof; and at least one central controller in direct or indirect communication with the at least one deployment recognition device and configured to receive at least a portion of at least one of the following: the user data, the time data, the event data, the navigation data, or any combination thereof.

1. A navigational deployment and initialization system, comprising:
at least one personal inertial navigation module associated with at least one user and comprising a plurality of sensors and at least one controller configured to generate navigation data derived at least in part upon output of the plurality of sensors and at least one navigation routine; at least one deployment recognition device configured to directly or indirectly receive at least one of the following: user data, time data, event data, navigation data, or any combination thereof; and at least one central controller in direct or indirect communication with the at least one deployment recognition device and configured to receive at least a portion of at least one of the following: the user data, the time data, the event data, the navigation data, or any combination thereof, wherein the at least one deployment recognition device is further configured to:
enter an initialization mode, wherein a position of the at least one deployment recognition device is not set;receive at least a portion of the navigation data of the at least one personal inertial navigation module of a user sufficient to determine a user position;determine the position of the at least one deployment recognition device in the common frame of reference based at least in part upon at least a portion of the navigation data of the at least one personal inertial navigation module of the user; andenter a ready mode, wherein the position of the at least one deployment recognition device is set to the determined position.
