Shots Across No Man\u27s Land: A Response to Handgun Control, Inc.\u27s, Richard Aborn
In response to Richard Aborn\u27s article The Battle Over the Brady Bill and the Future of Gun Control Advocacy, Johnson argues that Aborn\u27s bad gun formula trivializes the Second Amendment, ignores issues vital to the gun control debate, and obfuscates what should ultimately need to be a choice between an armed citizenry or a disarmed one. Aborn\u27s article suggests no real changes and does not effectively advance the debate
Low cost underwater acoustic localization
Over the course of the last decade, the cost of marine robotic platforms has
significantly decreased. In part this has lowered the barriers to entry of
exploring and monitoring larger areas of the earth's oceans. However, these
advances have been mostly focused on autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) or
shallow water autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). One of the main drivers
for high cost in the deep water domain is the challenge of localizing such
vehicles using acoustics. A low cost one-way travel time underwater ranging
system is proposed to assist in localizing deep water submersibles. The system
consists of location aware anchor buoys at the surface and underwater nodes.
This paper presents a comparison of methods together with details on the
physical implementation to allow its integration into a deep sea micro AUV
currently in development. Additional simulation results show error reductions
by a factor of three.Comment: 73rd Meeting of the Acoustical Society of Americ
