US Patent 10302736 Moving object detection system with direction and distance prediction

In one representative embodiment, a method of detecting position relative to a wind turbine can comprise detecting a condor within a detection area, determining a first position of the condor relative to the wind turbine, assigning the condor to a first predetermined zone of a plurality of predetermined zones based on the first position, determining a second position of the condor relative to the wind turbine, assigning the condor to a second predetermined zone of the plurality of predetermined zones based on the second position, predicting a trajectory of the condor based on a relationship between the first position and the second position.
