gimballed momentum wheel : Better attitude control and energy storage can be achieved by using a pair of counter-rotating micro wheels. This configuration enables micro-satellites to change their angular momentum and orientation with very little net change in stored energy. Likewise, energy can be extracted or added to a pair of wheels without changing the satellite's attitude. Power can be saved while using a regenerative brake state to decrease the speed, or this braking energy can be used to accelerate the other micro-wheel rotating in the opposite direction in a gimballed momentum wheel. Thus, it can sustain spacecraft with limited power during a short-term space mission. 2, record 4, English, - single%2Dgimballed%20momentum%20wheel

Electronics are, perhaps, the biggest growing area of Formula One technology in current times, and their existence has made bi-directional telemetry an incredible tool of the modern age. The cars operate on a "fly-by-wire" system, which means driver's controls, such as the throttle and the gearchange paddles on the steering wheel, send an electronic signal to the engine and gearbox. That electronic signal, and any others relating to set-up on the car, can now be modified from the pits, with a return burst of information. The change is indicated to the driver on an on-board display, and he must accept the change by pressing a button on the steering wheel. 1, record 7, English, - bi%2Ddirectional%20telemetry

Le recours à cette ressource a fait de la télémétrie bidirectionnelle un outil extraordinaire dans l'ère moderne. Les monoplaces utilisent un système de commande électrique grâce auquel les commandes du pilote telles que l'accélérateur ou les manettes de changement de vitesses envoient un signal électronique au moteur et à la boîte de vitesses. À l'instar de tous les messages relatifs aux réglages de la voiture, ce signal peut désormais être modifié à partir des stands, qui obtiennent un retour d'informations conséquent.

A most important aspect of constructing a gyroscope is to mount the rotating wheel so that it is free of all unwanted torques. If this can be achieved, the spin vector of the gyroscope does not change from its initial value and hence always points in the same direction with respect to the fixed stars.

The Molecular Dynamics Sarastro 2000 has a simple light path that makes it ideal for conversion to a 2-photon scope. We retained the ability to use the microscope in the 1-photon, confocal mode by replacing mirror 2 with a beamsplitter that passes IR from the Mira 900 or reflects visible excitation from the on-board 25 mW argon-ion laser. Mirror 3 and the two scanning mirrors were replaced with broad-band mirrors for better IR throughput. We installed a plate that blocks the IR laser beam whenever the lid is opened to change filters, for safety. That is it--No more modifications necessary! To use in the 2-Photon mode, the on-board laser is turned off, the Mira 900 IR laser is turned on, the primary dichroic wheel is rotated to a 680 SP(Chroma) mirror, and the excitation filter and aperture wheels are rotated to the "open" settings. To improve rejection of excitation light, a barrier filter(680 SP, Chroma) is used in the detector housing. 3, record 10, English, - 2%2Dphoton%20imaging
