Abstract: System that prevents the transmission of sound noise from the outside to a receptacle based on the use of a vacuum chamber that surrounds the receptacle to be protected, for this purpose the system comprises: A first receptacle (1), which is a hermetic one with rigid walls. A second receptacle (2) or outer receptacle enveloping the first receptacle and separated from the previous one by a separation chamber (3) and without any physical point of contact between the two receptacles, is also hermetic with rigid walls. Separating means (4) of the receptacles and maintainers of the separation chamber, consisting of electromagnetic means in a disposition facing between them, one on the outer face of the inner receptacle and the other on the inner face of the outer receptacle. A system of extraction (5) of the gases in the separation chamber (3) between the two previous receptacles.

Abstract: A system for locating the end of a boom and that of a refueling vessel in a mid-flight refueling operation from a tanker that includes means for locating the position of the inlet mouth of the fuel that is inside the vessel of the receiving plane that comprise at least one vision subsystem arranged on the tanker. Also included are means for locating the position of the boom tip comprising light emitters, placed on the boom tip, along with the vision subsystem arranged on the tanker, and processing means constructed to use the images obtained from the locating means to allow their positions and inclinations to be exactly determined with respect to a common coordinate system.

Abstract: Haptic augmented reality device for facilitating the actions to control a boom in full flight, allowing the boom to be controlled with a single hand, without the need for any training in what the manoeuvres refer to. In addition, the system not only provides information concerning how the operation is being performed, but also provides assistance, indicating to the boomer when a particular movement is completely prohibited (making the movement impossible) or is not recommendable (making it necessary to apply more force to perform the movement).

Abstract: System for detecting the tip of the pole of the flying boom of a tanker and of the mouth of the receptacle of the receiver for semi-automatic or automatic contact for in-flight refueling with a boom, which ensures to provide the control system of the tanker's boom with robust, reliable and simultaneous information in real time with regards to the end of its pole and of the mouth of the receiver's receptacle, at all times. To this end, the system comprises: 1) light emitters mounted on the tip of its pole, 2) light emitters mounted on the contour of the receptacle of the receiving aircraft, 3) a processing subsystem and 4) two 3D cameras, a TOF camera, synchronised with a light emitter and an additional camera together with a structured light emitter generated with a DOE-type lens.

Abstract: A system for detecting the tube tip of the flying boom of a tanker aircraft and the receptacle mouth of the receiver for semi-automatic or automatic contact for in-flight aerial refueling with a boom, which does not incorporate signaling devices installed on the receiver aircraft, wherein the system and associated method are robust and ensure that the tanker boom control system is provided with real-time, robust, reliable and simultaneous information, from the tip of the tube thereof and from the receiver aircraft's receptacle mouth, at all times. To this end, the system comprises: 1) light emitters mounted on the tip of the tube thereof, 2) a processing subsystem and 3) two 3D cameras, including a TOF camera or a DOE-type camera (or both), as well as at least one laser L to provide them with their specific functionality.

Abstract: The present invention details a group of focussed means to create points of light of different sizes and colours, that together form figures whose function is to create a sign in front of the eyes of a driver or operator, to provide them with certain information from a remote point. The points of light are created by the ionization of the air in different points in the space where it is desirable to create the sign in question.
