The technical monitor for the MIT task was engineer Jim Fletcher, who later served as NASA Administrator. The Atlas guidance system was to be a combination of an on-board autonomous system and a ground-based tracking and command system. The self-contained system finally prevailed in ballistic missile applications for obvious reasons.
#Compass: Combat Providence Analysis System (#コンパス【戦闘摂理解析システム】, #Konpasu Sentō Setsuri Kaiseki Shisutemu) is a Japanese multiplayer online battle arena video game created by NHN PlayArt and Dwango. It was released for iOS, Android, and Amazon Fire devices in
Direction determination refers to the ways in which a cardinal direction or compass point can be determined in navigation and wayfinding.The most direct method is using a compass (magnetic compass or gyrocompass), but indirect methods exist, based on the Sun path (unaided or by using a watch or sundial), the stars, and satellite navigation.
An eCompass or e-Compass is a tilt compensated electronic compass utilizing an accelerometer and a magnetometer. A number of manufacturers, including Motorola, AKM Semiconductor, NXP, Bosch Sensortec, and ST micro make eCompasses. eCompasses are also found in some laptops such as the HP Spectre. Today's smartphones often include an eCompass ...
Input data can come from device sources like digital cameras, image scanners, or any other measuring devices.Those inputs can be either monochrome (in which case only the response curve needs to be calibrated, though in a few select cases, one must also specify the color or spectral power distribution that that single channel corresponds to) or specified in multidimensional color, most ...
The formal definition of calibration by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) is the following: "Operation that, under specified conditions, in a first step, establishes a relation between the quantity values with measurement uncertainties provided by measurement standards and corresponding indications with associated measurement uncertainties (of the calibrated instrument or ...
The basic fluxgate compass is a simple electromagnetic device that employs two or more small coils of wire around a core of highly permeable magnetic material, to directly sense the direction of the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field.
C.a.R.– Compass and Ruler (also known as Z.u.L., which stands for the German "Zirkel und Lineal") — is a free and open source interactive geometry app that can do geometrical constructions in Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry. The software is Java based. The author is René Grothmann of the Catholic University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt.
