  • Publication number: 20240096224
    Abstract: Embodiments provide a flight supervision platform including a server computer and an animated graphical user interface for simultaneously monitoring multiple autonomous aircraft. More specifically, techniques disclosed herein provide a flight supervision platform that allows for one-to-many supervision where a remote supervisor (e.g., human or artificial intelligence) may continuously monitor and/or interact with a plurality of autonomous aircraft. For example, the autonomous aircraft may include one or more autonomous electric vertical takeoff landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The flight supervision platform may display information and receive input via the GUI and transmit commands based on the received input to the autonomous aircraft.

  • Patent number: 8667618
    Abstract: A helmet (1, 100, 200) for protecting a user's head (90), comprising a cap (2) for protecting the user's cranium (92) and a chin guard (3) for protecting the user's chin (93), wherein the chin guard (3) is adapted to move between a first protecting position (31) and a second protecting position (32) under the action of a force (50) acting in the direction of the chin (93) of a user wearing on said helmet (1), the chin guard (3) in said second protecting position (32) being nearer to the user's chin (93) with respect to the chin guard (3) in said first protecting position (31).

  • Patent number: 4713619
    Abstract: An electronic device for feeding an ion pump with two different tensions and for improved measuring of the pressure in the pump, the two different tensions being a normal operating tension and a lower tension at which a correct measurement of the pressure can be made in a pressure range up to beyond 10.sup.-10 torr. through a transformer whose primary or secondary winding is divided into two sections that can be connected and separated by switches controlled by oscillator circuits. Alternatively feeding at two different tensions can be obtained by feeding to the primary winding of the transformer a pulsed tension having a rectangular wave form and a high frequency controlled by a field effect transistor having an isolated gate. A sampling and holding circuit permits the pressure to be measured only in the conditions of feeding at the lower tension.

  • Patent number: 4631002
    Abstract: A sputter ion pump with a cathode having blades arranged radially adjacent the cylindrical hollow cells of the anode.This arrangement increases the probability of grazing collisions useful for the formation of fast inert gas molecules, particularly argon. This improves the pumping speed and the speed stability in time.
