Modern "glass cockpits" like those in the Boeing 777, the F-117 stealth fighter and Shuttle Atlantis represent a revolution in the way cockpits for aircraft and spacecraft are designed and built today. The first hints of this revolution appeared in the 1970s when flight-worthy cathode ray tube (CRT) screens began to replace a few of the electromechanical displays, gauges and instruments that had served so well for so long. These new "glass" instruments, as few and as primitive as they were, gave the cockpit a distinctly different look and suggested the name, "glass cockpit." 4, record 2, English, - glass%20cockpit

Pour les planches de bord, notre travail s’est orienté vers le concept «glass cockpit», le cockpit tout écran. Il s’agit d’enrichir le système disponible en modernisant la présentation des informations [...]. «Les hélicoptères légers les plus récents disposent, par exemple, d’un affichage centralisé des paramètres moteurs. Nous pouvons compléter cette présentation avec un écran spécifique aux paramètres de vol venant remplacer les instruments électro-mécaniques traditionnels. Un autre écran multifonction(MFD, multifunction display) peut aussi afficher une carte numérique, de la vidéo ou l'image obtenue par le radar météo. Ces matériels, peu coûteux, que nous proposons sont parfaitement adaptés aux hélicoptères légers». 3, record 2, French, - poste%20de%20pilotage%20%C3%A0%20%C3%A9crans%20cathodiques

... Assystem City Car ... is remarkably easy to park, and not only because of its compact dimensions (3.60 m long, 1.60 m wide and 1.60 m tall), or its light weight (only 600 kg), but also because it has three axles, a central one, with two wheels, and one wheel in each extreme of the car (front and end). These single wheel axles are the ones responsible for moving and turning the Assystem City Car. The front wheel is powered by an electrical engine with 20 kW (about 27 cv), which can push the car to 50 km/h of top speed and has 30 km of autonomy, basically what regular people need to go to work and back home every day. For the roads, there is a little combustion engine that delivers 60 cv in the rear axle. It can lead the vehicle to a top speed of 130 km/h and, with its 30 l fuel tank, can carry the Assystem City Car to up to 600 km. Both engines can be used together, what turns this car into a hybrid. This vehicle, albeit small, can carry up to five people and their luggage. It has a low gravity center, what enhances dynamics, its oval shape prevents serious accident consequences and, when visibility is low, a screen takes the place of the regular windshield and shows the driver infrared images of the road, guiding him/her safely to destination. 1, record 3, English, - Assystem%20City%20Car

Assystem City Car [...] Les innovations portent notamment sur l'interface homme-machine. Les commandes des fonctions du véhicule sont regroupées sur un écran tactile situé sur une console centrale. Des menus contextuels permettent d’accéder au contrôle des organes et au système multimédia. Les éléments de confort comprennent radio, GPS [Global Positioning Systems], téléphonie et vidéo. Assystem a développé intégralement le logiciel de restitution de l'environnement extérieur, grâce aux 4 caméras externes et exploité le concept de «réalité augmentée» pour un affichage plus visible des informations d’aide à la conduite et de sécurité. Le véhicule se veut «communiquant», puisqu'il est équipé d’un accès à Internet, téléphone, TV numérique, lecteur DVD et MP2. Le véhicule se veut en outre respectueux de l'environnement, à travers deux éléments prinicipaux :-une motorisation hybride qui permet d’économiser de l'énergie [;]-une structure «dual frame», c'est-à-dire que le véhicule est doté d’une coque modulaire indépendante du chassis porteur en aluminium qui facilite le recyclage et répond déjà aux normes européennes devant entrer en vigueur en 2008 qui prévoient que les véhicules doivent être conçus pour être très recyclables, avec 85 % d’éléments recyclables, 10 % d’éléments valorisables, et seulement 5 % d’éléments non réexploitables. 2, record 3, French, - Assystem%20City%20Car

Displays and Control Module (DCM). This is an irregularly shaped box of switches, valves, and digital displays that gets mounted on the chest. It controls the primary life support system and the secondary oxygen pack. 2, record 5, English, - display%20and%20control%20module

Displays and Control Module (DCM)... Along the top are switches for power, communications mode selection, caution and warning. There is also a switch that controls the water that is fed to the Liquid Cooling-and-Ventilation Garment. A digital display is used to monitor the various suit circuits. At the top left of this module is an emergency relief valve. If the primary life support system were to ever malfunction, the astronaut would still have access to the secondary oxygen pack. To activate this secondary oxygen pack, all the astronaut would have to do is open a purge valve by squeezing a set of pinchers. This valve releases air pressure on the chest plate - this is the same valve that is used at the end of EVA [Extravehicular Activity] to depressurize the suit. Also on the left, a step down from the purge valve, is the mechanical-suit pressure gauge. Along the right-hand side of the module, are two switches: the ventilation-fan switch and the push-to-talk switch. The ventilation-fan switch can activate and deactivate a fan which circulates air through the helmet and other parts of the suit. The push-to-talk switch is similar to one you would find on a CB [Citizen Band] radio. If the astronaut wants to talk, he has to push the button to be heard, and if he wants to receive voice messages, he has to release the button. On the front of the panel are other controls for volume, temperature, and suit pressure. 2, record 5, English, - display%20and%20control%20module

Le module de [commande et d’affichage](DCM)... Sur le dessus se trouvent des boutons pour l'alimentation, la sélection du mode de communications, et des voyants d’avertissement et d’alarme. Il y a aussi un bouton pour contrôler l'alimentation en eau dans le sous-vêtement de refroidissement et de ventilation au liquide. Un écran numérique est utilisé pour contrôler les divers circuits du scaphandre. Dans le coin supérieur gauche de ce module se trouve un [robinet] de secours d’urgence. Si l'équipement de vie principal faisait défaut, l'astronaute aurait donc accès à sa réserve d’oxygène supplémentaire. Pour l'activer, l'astronaute n’ aurait qu'à ouvrir une valve de purge en pinçant une série de boutons. Ce robinet relâche la pression d’air dans la boîte qui est sur la poitrine-il s’agit du même robinet qui est utilisé à la fin de l'EVA pour dépressuriser le scaphandre [ou la combinaison]. Le manomètre de pression d’air se trouve aussi à gauche, juste en dessous du robinet de purge. Du côté droit du module se trouvent deux boutons : celui du ventilateur et celui du poussoir d’émission(bouton parole). Le bouton du ventilateur peut activer et désactiver le ventilateur qui fait circuler l'air dans le casque et les autres parties du scaphandre [ou de la combinaison]. Le poussoir d’émission ressemble à ceux qu'on trouve sur les radios BP [bande publique]. Si l'astronaute veut parler, il doit pousser le bouton pour être entendu, et s’il veut entendre les messages, il doit relâcher le bouton. Sur le panneau avant de la boîte de trouvent d’autres dispositifs de commande du volume, de la température et de la pression d’air du scaphandre [ou de la combinaison]. 2, record 5, French, - module%20de%20commande%20et%20d%26rsquo%3Baffichage
