Autonomous Rail Rapid Transit (ART) is a lidar (light detection and ranging) guided bi-articulated bus system for urban passenger transport. Developed and manufactured by CRRC through CRRC Zhuzhou Institute Co Ltd, it was unveiled in Zhuzhou in the Hunan province on June 2, 2017.
The accuracy of laser trackers is of the order of 0.025 mm over a distance of several metres. [1] Some examples of laser tracker applications are to align aircraft wings during assembly [2] and to align large machine tools. [3] To take measurements the technician first sets up a laser tracker on a tripod with an unobstructed view of the object
Current location-tracking technologies can be used to pinpoint users of mobile devices in several ways. First, service providers have access to network-based and handset-based technologies that can locate a phone for emergency purposes.
The HELIOS system uses a modular power and fiber-optic configuration that can be expanded to fire at between 60 and 120 kW. Besides drone and missile defense, it also performs long range surveillance and sensor dazzling. Its purported advantages are high precision, efficient "cost to kill", and power capacity for multiple shots. [1]
On the left, the main IR sensor (100 km range), on the right a TV/IR identification sensor with laser rangefinder (40 km range) An electro-optical targeting system (EOTS), is a system employed to track and locate targets in aerial warfare. [1] It can use charge-coupled device TV cameras, laser rangefinders and laser designators.
Tracking-system on a forklift An M998 High-Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV) carrying a radar and tracking system shelter sits parked at an airfield during Operation Desert Shield. The shelter is used by the Marines of the 3rd Remotely Piloted Vehicle (RPV) Platoon to track their Pioneer RPVs during flight.
Satellite laser ranging is a proven geodetic technique with significant potential for important contributions to scientific studies of the earth/atmosphere/ocean system. It is the most accurate technique currently available to determine the geocentric position of an Earth satellite, allowing for the precise calibration of radar altimeters and ...
GPS tracking may also be ordered for persons subject to a restraining order. [6] [7] Espionage/surveillance: a tracker on a person or vehicle allows movements to be tracked. Vehicle tracking: some people use GPS Trackers to monitor activity of their own vehicle, especially in the event of a vehicle being used by a friend or family member.
