EECOM's revamped Space Shuttle responsibilities included the atmospheric pressure control and revitalization systems, the cooling systems (air, water, and freon), and the supply/waste water system. EECOM's critical function was to maintain the systems, such as atmosphere and thermal control, that keep the crew alive.
Pipeline video inspection is a form of telepresence used to visually inspect the interiors of pipelines, plumbing systems, and storm drains.A common application is for a plumber to determine the condition of small diameter sewer lines and household connection drain pipes.
In aeronautics, an environmental control system (ECS) of an aircraft is an essential component which provides air supply, thermal control and cabin pressurization for the crew and passengers. Additional functions include the cooling of avionics , smoke detection , and fire suppression .

The interactions between the components of the ISS Environmental Control and Life Support System (ECLSS) The International Space Station (ISS) Environmental Control and Life Support System (ECLSS) is a life support system that provides or controls atmospheric pressure, fire detection and suppression, oxygen levels, proper ventilation, waste management and water supply.
A water detector is an electronic device that is designed to detect the presence of water for purposes such as to provide an alert in time to allow the prevention of water leakage. A common design is a small cable or device that lies flat on a floor and relies on the electrical conductivity of water to decrease the resistance across two contacts.
N833NA, the Boeing 720 aircraft involved in the test. NASA and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) conducted a joint program for the acquisition, demonstration, and validation of technology for the improvement of transport aircraft occupant crash survivability using a large, four-engine, remotely piloted transport airplane in a controlled impact demonstration (CID).
The wide range of load related problems identified are classified into the following types: Wrong selection: Some loads cannot be used with stand-alone PV systems. House wiring: Inadequate or low quality wiring and protection devices can affect the system's response. Low efficiency: Low efficiency loads may increase energy consumption.
