Outdoor Downward-Facing Optical Flow Odometry with Commodity Sensors
Positioning is a key task in most field robotics applications but can be very challenging in GPS-denied or high-slip environments. A common tactic in such cases is to position visually, and we present a visual odometry implementation with the unusual reliance on optical mouse sensors to report vehicle velocity. Using multiple kilometers of data from a lunar rover prototype, we demonstrate that,...
متن کاملThe copepod Calanus spp. (Calanidae) is repelled by polarized light
Both attraction and repulsion from linearly polarized light have been observed in zooplankton. A dichotomous choice experiment, consisting of plankton light traps deployed in natural waters at a depth of 30 m that projected either polarized or unpolarized light of the same intensity, was used to test the hypothesis that the North Atlantic copepod, Calanus spp., is linearly polarotactic. In addi...
متن کاملDownward auroral currents from the reconnection Hall-region
We present a simple (stationary) mechanism capable of generating the auroral downward field-aligned electric field that is needed for accelerating the ionospheric electron component up into the magnetosphere and confining the ionospheric ions at low latitudes (as is required by observation of an ionospheric cavity in the downward auroral current region). The lifted ionospheric electrons carry t...
متن کاملPoststarvation feeding and swimming activity in Calanus pacijkus and Metridia pacijica
Gut fluorescence analysis of Calanus paczjkus and Metridia pacijica is used to describe variation in food intake rate at time scales of one to several hours. The animals are starved before each experiment, then exposed continuously to phytoplankton cultures. Variability of gut fullness is large (order IO-fold) between individual copepods captured at the same time and is about proportional to th...
متن کاملComparative Study of Anchored Wall Performance with Two Facing Designs
The present study compared the performance of soldier pile and concrete bearing pad anchored wall facings. Using Abaqus finite element software, two case studies have been precisely represented for the facing designs and effects of the parameters of soil type, spacing of anchors and facings, surcharge and facing sizes were investigated. The analysis results indicate that the soldier pile method...
