Memory and display device uses cathodochromic material to store visual information and fast phosphor to recall information for display and electronic processing. Cathodochromic material changes color when bombarded with electrons, and is restored to its original color when exposed to light of appropiate wavelength.
Experiments with accelerated helium ions were performed in an effort to localize the site of initial radiation interactions in the eye that lead to light flash observations by astronauts during spaceflight. The character and efficiency of helium ion induction of visual sensations depended on the state of dark adaptation of the retina; also, the same events were seen with different efficiencies and details when particle flux density changed. It was concluded that fast particles cause interactions in the retina, particularly in the receptor layer, and thus give rise to the sensations of light flashes, streaks, and supernovae.
The design, development, and fabrication of a visual display aid to air navigation are discussed. The display will locate an aircraft on a standard navigational chart when activated by two independent directional signals. The display consists of a radial pattern of electrically conductive line pairs, liquid crystal material contained between the line pairs, and addressing and activating electronics. The application of a voltage to the addressed line pair will cause the liquid crystal to become white in color, thus indicating the direction to the selected VOR station.
Techniques of computer calculations used to analyze the potential for improving visual acquisition of collision threats by means of Pilot Warning Indicator systems (PWI) are described. The quantitative effects of PWI resolution and effective range upon the average cumulative probability of detection are presented.
