Evaluation of scanning earth sensor mechanism on engineering test satellite 4
Get PDFThe results of the analysis and the evaluation of flight data obtained from the horizon sensor test project are described. The rotary mechanism of the scanning earth sensor composed of direct drive motor and bearings using solid lubricant is operated satisfactorily. The transmitted flight data from Engineering Test Satellite IV was evaluated in comparison with the design value

Simulating arthroscopic knee surgery using volumetric object representations, real-time volume rendering and haptic feedback
No full textA system for simulating arthroscopic knee surgery that is based on volumetric object models derived from 3D Magnetic Resonance Imaging is presented. Feedback is provided to the user via real-time volume rendering and force feedback for haptic exploration. The system is the result of a unique collaboration between an industrial research laboratory, two major universities, and a leading research hospital. In this paper, components of the system are detailed and the current state of the integrated system is presented. Issues related to future research and plans for expanding the current system are discussed.
