Boris Rybak, professor of phonetics at the University of Paris III, has just demonstrated, to the Academy of Sciences, the "typophone" which is capable of synthesizing speech. The small device weighing only 1. 6 kg(3 1/2 lb), which can be put in one's pocket, is equipped with a keyboard with about 30 keys. Twenty-six of them are capable of emitting phonemes and hence of recreating phrases. The "typophone" can express itself intelligibly although with a rather dead tone of voice. It could become an indispensable instrument for communication by mute persons or by divers under water. 1, record 2, English, - typophone

Weighing gauges are most useful in areas with frequent snow, since they measure any form of precipitation simply by weighing on a balance whatever falls into a pail. The downward motion of the pail as it fills with precipitation is transmitted to a recording chart on a clock-turned drum. Many of these gauges are equipped with a funnel which can be removed to permit the snow to fall directly into the pail. If accuracy of the snowfall measurements is important, the gauge should, of course, be shielded. 5, record 5, English, - weighing%20rain%20gauge

The two types of automatic rain gages used in the County are weighing buckets and tipping buckets. Most of the rainfall records in the County are collected with weighing bucket gages. A weighing bucket consists of a collection bucket for receiving and storing the precipitation, a weighing device for measurement, and an indicating dial to display, in inches, precipitation gathered by the collector. The weighing bucket mechanically converts the depth of accumulated precipitation during a given period(5 or 15 minutes), to a code disk position. This code disk position is recorded on punched paper tape at the selected intervals. 8, record 5, English, - weighing%20rain%20gauge

On gross-weight fillers, each fill station is fitted with a weighing device, typically a beam scale, which acts to shut off product flow when a predetermined weight has been reached. Each scale is set for the maximum weight of container and contents. Adjustment for other containers and content weight may be made by adding special weights to each filling platform. By using a load cell as the weighing device, the weight is electronically measured continuously, and liquid flow is stopped at a predetermined weight. 1, record 17, English, - gross%20weight%20filler
