Abstract: An aircraft turbomachine comprising a fan conduit with a wall, a flow of air passing through the turbomachine via the fan conduit. An air passage comprising an air opening is arranged in the wall, the air passage configured to receive a portion of the flow of the air through the fan conduit. A deflector is fixed to the wall upstream of the air opening, the deflector comprising at least one cross-section extending in the fan conduit to capture the flow of air. The at least one cross-section is porous. The deflector protects the air passage structure and is easy to produce and to fix to the wall of the fan conduit when it is screwed or riveted directly thereto. The deflector, as a result of its location in the fan conduit, is easy to access and thus allows rapid maintenance operations without having to disassemble the air passage.

Abstract: A masking method includes: a step of choosing a generating element which is part of the skin of an aircraft, a first step of measuring a fundamental frequency of a sound signal emitted by the generating element, a step of selecting a masking element which is part of the skin, a second step of measuring a fundamental frequency of another sound signal emitted by the masking element, a step of modification of the structure of the masking element in such a way as to shift the fundamental frequency of the sound signal emitted by the masking element to a frequency lower than the fundamental frequency of the sound signal emitted by the generating element. Such a masking method thus makes it possible to mask the sound signal emitted by the generating element by the sound signal emitted by the masking element.

Abstract: A wireless mobile terminal works with an identification server to automatically identify a broadcast program/movie and then identify and connect to a networked media server to receive the identified program/movie therefrom. The terminal generates data that characterizes content of a broadcast program/movie that is send by the terminal and is playing external thereto. The terminal transmits a message that includes the characterization data and a request for identification of a media server from which the broadcast program/movie can be received. The identification server identifies the broadcast program/movie, and identifies a user viewed location within the identified program/movie that corresponds to what was sensed by the terminal. The identification server identifies an Internet address of a media server from which the terminal can receive transmission of the identified program/movie.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium having instructions to receive sensed data based on an input from a user via a display; generate parallel streams of input data based on the sensed data, wherein one or more of the parallel streams of input data comprise one or more input characteristics, wherein the one or more input characteristics comprise one or more of prediction data or smoothing data; and output the parallel streams of input data, wherein the parallel streams of input data are made available to an application with which the user is interacting.

Abstract: An aircraft includes at least one net for reducing aerodynamic noise from a structural element of the aircraft. The flexible net associated with the structural element is retractable and capable of occupying at least one position located between the following two end positions: a deployed position, in which the net is placed in a turbulence area, and a retracted position, in which the net is at least partially outside the turbulence area. The net may be automatically moved between positions based on an aircraft parameter such as speed or altitude.
