Traffic sign recognition (TSR) systems can recognize common traffic signs, such as a “stop” sign or a “turn ahead” sign, through image processing techniques. [53] This system takes into account the sign's shape, such as hexagons and rectangles, and the color to classify what the sign is communicating to the driver. [53]
Diagram showing the path of a driver performing a U-turn.A vehicle with a smaller turning diameter will be able to perform a sharper U-turn. The turning radius (alternatively, turning diameter or turning circle) of a vehicle defines the minimum dimension (typically the radius or diameter) of available space required for that vehicle to make a semi-circular U-turn without skidding.
My primary objection is to the definition in the second sentence--it is wrong--because it defines the turning distance as the one traveled by the wheels, which could only mean that the turning circle distance is the length of the arc that the wheels follow when turning the vehicle 180 degrees around. This is one of those misleading "sounds ...
Americans) are upwardly mobile, meaning they also move up at least one rung on the income ladder ahead of their parents. One-quarter of all Americans (27 percent) are riding the tide – making more than their parents‟ income but remaining on the same income rung as their parents. A small number (5 percent) are falling despite the tide,
The controlled detour at 37,000ft west of the Faroe Islands took just less than 10 minutes and occurred shortly after 8.30pm on Monday.
The turn (symbol tr or pla) is a unit of plane angle measurement that is the measure of a complete angle—the angle subtended by a complete circle at its center. One turn is equal to 2π radians, 360 degrees or 400 gradians. As an angular unit, one turn also corresponds to one cycle (symbol cyc or c) [1] or to one revolution (symbol rev or r). [2]
Lawmakers are moving ahead with a bipartisan bill that would provide enhanced Social Security benefits to millions of Americans, but hurdles remain. Social Security Fairness Act takes big step ...
[18] [19] Today, the degree, 1 / 360 of a turn, or the mathematically more convenient radian, 1 / 2 π of a turn (used in the SI system of units) is generally used instead. In the 1970s – 1990s, most scientific calculators offered the gon (gradian), as well as radians and degrees, for their trigonometric functions . [ 23 ]
