A simple laser range finder is still desired in future to provide the spacecraft range and velocity in real time during descent and touchdown. SALi is specially designed for missions to small planetary bodies. It features three new technologies. First, a RZPN code is used to modulate the ...
If you are a teacher you may find the finder helpful in devising lessons for Year 4 / Key Stage 2 (KS 2)Place Name Origins. This finder enables students to take a deeper look into the origins of place names for many of the UK's villages and towns today. Students can get practical ...
Forest canopy height estimates, at a regional scale, help understand the forest carbon storage, ecosystem processes, the development of forest management and the restoration policies to mitigate global climate change, etc. The recent availability of the
Extrinsic calibration of a camera and laser range finder (improves camera calibration). In Proceedings of the 2004 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) (IEEE Cat. No. 04CH37566), Sendai, Japan, 28 September–2 October 2004; IEEE: Piscataway, NJ, USA, ...
The benefits of this system include monitoring the coastal zone, inventorying the condition of navigational markings, waterways, shoreline, bottom rubble movements, quayside inspections, fairway capacity checks, and updating flood hazard maps. The system would enable an assessment of how measured and ...
The fertilizing role of African dust in the Amazon rainforest: A first multiyear assessment based on data from Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations. Geophys. Res. Lett. 2015, 42, 1984–1991. [Google Scholar] [CrossRef] Boucher, O.; Randall, D.; Artaxo, P.;...
Finally, some hybrid maps are generated with different kinds of landmark representation. A generalized, multi-constraint MAP problem is then solved using these different objects and observations. On the other hand, LiDAR based SLAM also exists and provides very good solutions. LiDAR approaches ...
The distance sensor is a time of flight range finder with 30 m measurement range (at 33.33 Hz). Using a distance sensor, walls on corridors are automatically detected. The detected walls are used to correct the heading of the pedestrian path. Through experiments, it is shown that the ...
To measure crown sides which were not easily accessible, such as with the case of trees growing on cliff sides or steep angles, a laser range-finder was used. The AGB (kg tree−1) was obtained through previous allometric models calibrated for the study sites [10]. The AGB model had ...
