DARPA Phoenix Program

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has kicked off an initiative to harvest and re-use valuable components from dead satellites in geosynchronous orbit (GEO), more than $300 billion worth of satellites are estimated to be in geosynchronous orbit 22,000 miles above the earth. This would be a boost to DARPA’s System F6- a program which is touted to be successful in next few years, probably 2015 and the features of project Phoenix involve establishing techniques for long range monitoring. In other words as you can inspect the drilling operations getting operated on the ocean floors and if you are sitting thousands of miles away, similarly you can also have robots, which can be maneuvered in space while the person responsible is present in the operating center below. DARPA is also looking into building tiny satlets, which could simply be clipped to the antennas of deactivated satellites for breathing new life into them and saving a significant chunk of cash…………………..

IEE Human System Interface Glasses-Free 3D Display

IEE might want to turn that perception around as they have integrated 3M’s revolutionary 3D film that does not need any 3D glasses to view into its very own field-proven, military-qualified handheld 4.8-inch control display unitor CDU for short and this kind of close cooperation will see such 3D displays being used for custom applications, where it was initially developed for use in terrain mapping, remote robotics control and enhanced video feeds. The Preliminary Advanced Information device is designed to show accurate terrain maps and the display is also a low power device, so it is able to pack in a higher resolution compared to other displays using 3D technology at 800 x 480 x RGB with a typical brightness of 200 cd/m2 in both 2D and 3D modes………………..
