Abstract: An omnidirectional imaging system includes a housing have at least one transparent portion, a light source configured to produce emitted light, a transmitter configured to direct the emitted light outward of the housing through the at least one transparent portion at a 360 degree scanning angle range measured about an axis, and a receiver configured to receive the emitted light. The receiver is configured to receive the emitted light and generate a cylindrical 3D point cloud centered along a path of motion of the housing, wherein the housing moves along the axis of rotation of the emitted light.

Abstract: An adjustable aquaculture assembly including a container having a plurality of open sides and defining a retention space. The open sides are configured to allow flow through the retention space. A plurality of buoyancy members are positioned on the container. Each buoyancy member may be configured to be selectively filled with and emptied of air. A pump is coupled with the plurality of buoyancy members and is configured to control airflow to and from at least one of the plurality of buoyancy members.

Abstract: System and method for remotely sensing the cross-flow orientation of a fluid (including a gaseous fluid) over an extended range. A Fourier transform of beam wander of a single beam can be used to determine the orientation of the flow field. Many applications depend upon accurate flow orientation data to provide correct information such as, for example, citing of turbines on wind farms and atmospheric/ocean weather prediction.
