It detects, analyzes, and locates directions of laser emissions [1] from laser guidance systems and laser rangefinders. Then it alerts the crew and can start various countermeasures, like smoke screen , aerosol screen (e.g. Shtora ), active laser self-defence weapon with laser dazzler (LSDW, used on the Chinese Type 99 main battle tank [ 2 ...
The High Energy Laser with Integrated Optical-dazzler and Surveillance (HELIOS) is a Lockheed Martin-developed 300 Kilowatt high-energy laser weapon designed to intercept combat drones, fast-attack craft, and missiles. [1] After winning the contract in 2018, the first announced installation was on the USS Preble (DDG-88) in 2019. [2]
a 'block free' signal (green), meaning that the next block is clear or, in the case of a distant signal, that the next signal is also green; Warning signals or speed limits (yellow) requiring the driver to slow the train and especially to be able to stop before the next stop signal; Stop signals (red) require the train to stop.
An output signal switching device (OSSD) is an electronic device used as part of the safety system of a machine. It provides a coded signal which, when interrupted due to a safety event, signals the machine to shut down. It works by converting the standard direct current supply, usually 24 volts, into two pulsed and out-of-phase signals.
Shtora-1 [4] is an electro-optical jammer that disrupts semiautomatic command to line of sight ATGMs, laser rangefinders and target designators. Shtora-1 is a soft kill countermeasure system. The system was shown fitted to a Russian main battle tank during the International Defense Exposition, held in Abu Dhabi in 1995. The first known ...
Information gathered from road signs by a forward facing camera is used in Tesla's Autosteer and Traffic-aware Cruise Control Systems to bring the vehicle to a stop if a stop sign is detected. [12] After a recent software update many Tesla vehicles upload the speed limit data collected by their cameras to Tesla's navigation software for all ...
The AN/SEQ-3 Laser Weapon System or XN-1 LaWS [1] is a laser weapon developed by the United States Navy. The weapon was installed on USS Ponce for field testing in 2014. In December 2014, the United States Navy reported that the LaWS system worked perfectly against low-end asymmetric threats, and that the commander of Ponce was authorized to ...
Some motor vehicle codes require that motorists stop at dark signals, which are typically indicative of an abnormality in the normal operation of the signal, such as a power failure. However, the dark signal is a normal display at HAWK beacons, where it designates the right-of-way for vehicular traffic.
