Eyes in the Sky: Human Factors and Uninhabited Air Vehicles
When observations are made using uninhabited air vehicles (UAVs) a distinction can be made between human factors problems associated with the perceptual quality of the display and those associated with the searching of large spaces. This article summarises the findings of behavioural experiments that investigated both these domains, using a UAV simulator. Participants' performance when detectin...
متن کاملSatellites, the All-Seeing Eyes in the Sky: Counting Elephant Seals from Space
Regular censuses are fundamental for the management of animal populations but, are logistically challenging for species living in remote regions. The advent of readily accessible, high resolution satellite images of earth mean that it is possible to resolve relatively small (0.6 m) objects, sufficient to discern large animals. To illustrate how these advances can be used to count animals in rem...
متن کاملVariations in the sky brightness during a lunar eclipse
A total lunar eclipse is conjectured to have influence on the physical conditions of an environmental area, particularly on the brightness of the sky. The phenomenon might also be relevant on weather parameters change on Earth, such as temperature, humidity and pressure, though a straightforward correlation is not easy to establish. This work mainly aims at measuring the brightness of the sky a...
متن کاملruby of the sky
in a profoundly impressive verse in shahnameh, sky is likened to red ruby. the present paper is attempted to probe into the background of the conventional belief regarding the relationship between sky and stone, for the semantic structure of the verse is composed in such a way that it is not possible to consider this relationship as being a conceptualistic viewpoint so that one may establish so...
متن کاملEyes on the Sky: A Refracting Concentrator Approach to the SKA
The Luneburg lens provides a unique SKA that operates up to 10 GHz with multiple, agile fields of view (FOVs). Furthermore, the unrestricted focal surface of the lens makes it uniquely extensible. It is possible to extend the array by adding FOVs and to economise the array by tailoring FOVs to specific science programmes. It is also possible to enlarge FOVs by employing focal plane arrays or mu...
