Quotes about sensors (16 Quotes)


    For example, the fact that you can put Navy personnel in an Air Force facility, exploiting information coming from Army sensors, you get a little bit more information than you would otherwise get if it was just the Navy talking to the Navy talking to the Navy, or the Army talking to the Army talking to the Army.

    Many photographers struggle with pulling all the pieces together to get the most out of digital technology, especially after taking the shot. While advances in image sensors, lenses, and photo printers are exciting, many of the biggest productivity and business improvements are coming from editing, color management, workflow, photo management, and collaboration.

    We have the Fine Guidance Sensors, one of which we will exchange out of three. Another one we changed on the last servicing mission, and on the fourth servicing mission in 2003 or 2004, the third one will be exchanged.

    I am anxious to begin developing a strong roadmap for 3S, its products and solutions. Our goal will be to expand existing markets and identify new opportunities where our sensors provide our customers with a continuous stream of critical information about their products or business, with little or no human intervention. This is a great opportunity to tap into growing industries with specialized products developed to precise specifications.

    Lighter computers and lighter sensors would let you have more function in a given weight, which is very important if you are launching things into space, and you have to pay by the pound to put things there.



    Optical sensors are an indirect assessment of soil fertility because it is using plants to give an indication of how well that soil is supporting the crop. There is also a wildcard in this technology with making recommendations and improving efficiency. And that's if there will be federal dollars available for growers to adopt it.

    With the electronics that have been added, the farmer can put a black box in the tractor or combine and just push a button telling all that stuff how to react to the different sensors. The ability to do some of the creative things with our planters, like variable speeds and guidance systems, all came from electro-hydraulics.

    We've created a new set where you get an intelligent brick, motors, and sensors, and you go and build your robot. You go on your computer, program the behavior of the robot, you download it, and off you go. You have created an autonomous working robot.

    We're using these animals as ocean sensors to tell us about oceanographic conditions, and we're also learning how they use the ocean--where they go and what they do.

    Google, Microsoft and Yahoo should be developing new technologies to bypass government sensors and barriers to the Internet; but instead, they agreed to guard the gates themselves.

    They also explained how the sensors can monitor the levels of acetone on people's breath, and this can be used to tell people who suffer from diabetes when their next insulin shot is due. This is a more discreet method than what is currently on the market.

    What we are seeing now is customers shifting their attention from security products like firewalls and intrusion sensors, to the policies that need to be in place, and the technologies that help them enforce policy compliance.

    Current nitrogen recommendations assume four things yield potential doesn't vary year after year, the yield level the soil will support without supplemental nitrogen is negligible, pre-plant nitrogen will be available throughout the growing season, and soil uniformity produces similar yield results across the field. Growers know that none of these assumptions are entirely accurate, and they can potentially be avoided using optical sensors.

    The sensors have many potential practical uses - in Government buildings, train carriages, cargo containers, on a soldier's lapel - and are a thousand times cheaper than current sensors that are used for the same purpose.

    When we needed a long extension on the Canadarm 1 in order to be able to inspect the outside plus sensors on the end, NASA ... looked through the whole world for who had the best capability and the most promising ability to build something and Canada won.
