ABSTRACT:
The present invention is in the area of gridlocking or sensor registration. Embodiments encompass systems of process and/or equipment to format tracks from more than one sensor to be compared or correlated by statistical and/or optical correlation techniques to provide coordinate transformations between one or more of the sensors based upon the objects or a subset of the objects tracked by each sensor. Embodiments may take into account determinations or calculations regarding tracks describing the same object by different sensors and may take into account errors in those determinations by comparing pairs of tracks associated with more than one object at the same or substantially the same time. Further, many embodiments comprise software that can execute on a laptop, desktop, or similar computer.
