Integrated Sensor System Monitoring and Characterizing Lightning Events

A compact sensor system integrates electric and magnetic field sensors to accurately measure, with a high level of sensitivity, electric and magnetic fields. The sensor system is self-contained so as to include a built-in power source, as well as data storage and / or transmission capability. The integrated sensor system also preferably includes a global positioning system (GPS) to provide timing and position information, a sensor unit that can determine the orientation and tilt of the sensor system, and self-calibrating structure which produces local electric and / or magnetic fields used to calibrate the sensor system following deployment. The system measures the electromagnetic signals produced by lightning and more has the capability to determine the direction and distance to a lightning event without input from sensors at other locations. Furthermore, the system can detect both conventional short-duration lightning events and also the less common, but more destructive, continuing current lightning.

Underwater enclosure apparatus and method for constructing the same

Apparatus for providing an enclosure, for example as a housing or to provide buoyancy, at underwater locations is disclosed comprising an inner shell and an outer shell, with a structural filler disposed between the two. The shells are prepared from fibre-reinforced plastic, with the fibres being oriented to provide resistance to both longitudinal and radial stresses induced in the apparatus by the hydrostatic pressure. The filler may be a structural filler comprising structural members extending between the inner and outer shells and occupying less than 60% of the volume of the cavity between the two shells. Alternatively, the filler may be a substantially void-free structural filler, such as a polyester resin. Methods of fabricating the apparatus are disclosed. In addition, a method of deballasting a buoyancy module is disclosed, in which the ballast, for example water, is withdrawn from the module by means of reduced pressure. Apparatus for deballasting is also disclosed.

Recording method, recording medium and recorder

When audio dubbing is implemented, error correction is performed for each ECC block. Therefore, even when one byte of data in an ECC block is rewritten, the whole ECC block to which the byte belongs needs to be read and rewritten. When audio dubbing data is scattered in ECC blocks, almost all ECC blocks, or all the data needs be rewritten in order to record audio dubbing data. By constructing ECC blocks including audio dubbing data so as not to contain original data, it is no longer necessary to read and rewrite unnecessary original data when audio dubbing data is overwritten.

Multifunctional illumination device

An illumination device has an illumination means formed by an arrangement of a plurality of semiconductor light sources (2) grouped together to form a field. Sensor elements (3) are arranged at individual positions of the field instead of the semiconductor sources (2). A multifunctional headlight can thus be advantageously created. The headlight can be embodied as a robust, compact, low-space unit. By virtue of the fact that the light sources (2) and the sensor elements (3) do not necessarily use the same lens system (1) i.e. each individual element of the multifunctional headlight can be provided with an individually designed lens system (1), the beam path of the illumination device can be separated from the field of vision of the sensor system and can thus be determined independently over large areas.
