Device simulates all three motions of walking and provides realistic variable loading during each step. Simulator will enable laboratory evaluation of all known types of total hip prostheses.
It was demonstrated that the multispectral image dissector camera is able to provide composite pictures of the earth surface from high altitude overflights. An electronic deflection feature was used to inject the gyro error signal into the camera for correction of aircraft motion.
A sensor system which provides registered high-solution multispectral images from a single sensor with no mechanical moving parts is reported, and the operation of an image dissector camera (IDC) is described. An earth scene 100 nautical miles wide is imaged through a single lens onto a photocathode surface containing three spectral filters, thereby producing three separate spectral signatures on the photocathode surface. An electron image is formed, accelerated, focused, and electromagnetically, deflected across an image plane which contains three sampling apertures, behind which are located three electron multipliers. The IDC system uses electromagnetic deflection for cross-track scanning and spacecraft orbit motion for along-track scanning, thus eliminating the need for a mechanical scanning mirror.
