Airspeed Measurement Using Acoustic Wave Propagation
A. Current industry standard:
All aircraft currently flying today use a Pitot tube and static pressure ports to determine airspeed. Airspeed is derived from the static and dynamic pressure difference. However,
High quality lenses and image sensors for High Definition video are widely available in many current video cameras.
However, in order to record HD, the video is typically highly compressed, which typically involves some compromises in image quality. Typically the video is watchable,
New nano foam polymer lithium batteries are relatively compact, light weight and have been designed to allow greater storage of electrical charge than other types of battery. They hold the potential to significantly increase the range of electric vehicles of the future. However, more importantly,
HOT parking lots, pavement and cars are very uncomfortable; and as this heat is reabsorbed, it radiates into warming the surroundings even more. Actually, there are very many parking lots, especially in the southern states, where heat is augmented because of this pavement radiation.
The Solo is a high performance, single seat vehicle designed to explore new ideas in personal transportation. It is the product of many years of experience in the high-performance automotive, aircraft and composite materials industries. The Solo is ultra-light, highly fuel efficient and offers the performance,
Our goal is to measure and evaluate the performance of the human body, in real-time and in action on the field. We integrated a few technologies together for physiological parameters measurement and defined new test protocols. Based on that, we also developed algorithms so we can,
