 | Field Expedient Bleeding Simulation System (FEBSS), Part 1 http://www.skedco.com/detail.aspx?categoryID=2&subID=100&sku=FS1000 The Field Expedient Bleeding Simulation System (FEBSS) The Situation: Most new Soldiers and first responders (Medics and Combat LifeSavers) have received first aid training, but are not prepared for the intense reality of a trauma incident. Situations ranging from gunshot wounds to IED explosions can be horrific to experience. A major part of this is intense bleeding. The uninitiated or ill-prepared can hesitate and, therefore, have a catastrophic effect on the victim where seconds are the difference between life and death. Only good training can overcome the natural reaction to hesitate and lose precious seconds in such intense situations. However, most of the realistic training devices and techniques available today are too expensive, delicate and generally reserved for the training of doctors and nurses. There is a great need for rugged and inexpensive training devices that mimic reality in order to train larger numbers of Soldiers and first responders to handle the pressure of life and death situations. The FEBSS satisfies this need. Be sure to check out our brochure and video. You can find the links above the product description.

 | GFS (Ground Following System) From Ag Shield Manufacturing Are You Tired of fighting with your floating boom to control tip height over a long day in the field, or do you just run the boom (tips) 4 or 5 feet in the air and hope the poor spray distribution will control most of the weeds? Now there is a better way! Ag Shield is supplying a proven hydro-mechanical Ground Following System (GFS) that keeps the boom at the right height with a light wheel that just feels the ground, and adjusts the boom height automatically. This reasonably priced system has no long wiring harness to get damaged by field obstacles. There are no boom mounted mechanical or electrical switches or sensors to cause problems. It's just a simple, reliable system that goes to the field and works. www.agshield.com |

 | Programmable Aperture Photography: Multiplexed Light Field Acquisition http://mpac.ee.ntu.edu.tw/~chiakai/pap Programmable Aperture Photography: Multiplexed Light Field Acquisition (SIGGRAPH 2008) Chia-Kai Liang, Tai-Hsu Lin, Bing-Yi Wong, Chi Liu, and Homer Chen National Taiwan University --Abstract-- We present a system including a novel component called programmable aperture and two associated post-processing algorithms for high-quality light field acquisition. The shape of the programmable aperture can be adjusted and used to capture light field at full sensor resolution through multiple exposures without any additional optics and without moving the camera. High acquisition efficiency is achieved by employing an optimal multiplexing scheme, and quality data is obtained by using the two postprocessing algorithms designed for self calibration of photometric distortion and for multi-view depth estimation. View-dependent depth maps thus generated help boost the angular resolution of light field. Various post-exposure photographic effects are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the system and the quality of the captured light field. |
 | Multiple Power Quality Supply System 1st in Japan In this interview, Keiichi Hirose from NTT Facilities, presents the first trial to take place in Japan in the area of power quality concepts and solutions. This field demonstration of a multiple power quality supply system is leaded by NTT Facilities. It has developed and installed a multiple power quality supply system that has the capability to feed four classes of alternative current (AC) and one of direct current (DC) power while meeting various customer requirements. The system also has three types of distributed generator (DG): gas engine sets, fuel cells, and photovoltaic panels. NTT Facilities started the project in Fiscal Year (FY) 2004 and plans to continue it for four years. A review of the project's first three years was done @EPQU'07 conference. |
 | Electromagnetic Inertial Propulsion System Initial report on project aimed to develop new way of space travel. This engine is based on electromagnetism. It utilizes a delay between two moments: when force field is created and when it acts on object. Currently there is a attempt to build levitator using proper oscillator/impulsator, coil and permanent magnet. This is not a science fiction idea. There are other teams trying to achieve the same by different methods. Here is short scientific abstract from adsabs.harvard.edu Experiments performed by independent research teams, suggesting that ``propellantless'' propulsion without external assistance is being achieved by means of electromagnetic inertia manipulation, are discussed here and compared within the framework of competing theoretical formulations. The authors' theory relies upon the fact that the electromagnetic (EM) field can exhibit a whole non-vanishing momentum in the ``matter'' frame, even for stationary regimes, provided Minkowski's energy-momentum tensor holds for EM fields in matter. In a closed system this EM momentum can be converted into mechanical momentum, so that electromagnetic inertia intervenes to modify the inertial properties of the generating device. Another theory, set forth by Corum and based on Slepian's works, states that the inertia manipulation effect stems from the Heaviside force density in vacuum, which is shown to lead to a zero instantaneous volume integrated force on a closed system. Although the system momentum is not conserved in the reported experiments, the propulsion effect is shown to be consistent with an alternative formulation of Minkowski's EM force density that correctly predicts former peer-reviewed experimental results. A fourth theory by J. Woodward, based on ``Machian'' mass/inertia fluctuations due to transient mass modifications, purportedly predicts the observed results but flaws are found in the predictions which, when corrected, considerably disagree with the experimental data. Finally, recent developments in vacuum physics allow building a conceptual framework with the potential of resolving the apparent violation of momentum conservation, closely connected to Minkowski's energy momentum tensor and its lack of symmetry. |
 | Moon video: plane crossing in field of view The following video was taken with a TothTelescope ( http://www.tothtelescope.com ) a revolutionary new telescope system. The TothTelescope is a multi function monocular system that is capable of 1. microscopy work up to 500x; 2. terrestrial observation where you can view people's face from 3 kilometers; 3. and it can also take images of the moon as shown in this video - all from a telescope that is only 500 grams in weight and measures only 14 cm in length. Incredible little telescope. This video shows the moon crossing the telescope's field of view and then suddenly, at the 2:05 mark, a jet plane crosses. Unbelievable one in a million shot. It was not orchestrated. Pure coincidence. NOTE: In response to all who made a comment. What is so special about this. The fact that a small telescope took this picture at a magnification of approximately 100x, and in that small field of view a plane crossed. This is not the same thing as you looking up at the moon and a plane comes by. Look how big the moon is. Fills the entire field of view! |
 | GTAC 2007: Adam Porter & Atif Memon - Skoll DCQAS The 2nd Annual Google Test Automation Conference (GTAC) in our New York office on August 23 and 24, 2007. Adam Porter & Atif Memon - Skoll DCQAS Software engineers increasingly emphasize agility and flexibility in their designs and development approaches. They increasingly use distributed development teams, rely on component assembly and deployment rather than green field code writing, rapidly evolve the system through incremental development and frequent updating, and use flexible product designs supporting extensive end-user customization. While agility and flexibility have many benefits, they also create an enormous number of potential system configurations built from rapidly changing component implementations. Since today's quality assurance (QA) techniques do not scale to handle highly configurable systems, we are developing and validating novel software QA processes and tools that leverage the extensive computing resources of user and developer communities in a distributed, continuous manner to significantly improve software quality.
