Abstract:
A power safety system (301) is configured to provide power information in an aircraft (101). The power safety system (301) includes a power safety instrument (303) having a power required indicator (311) and a power available indicator (313), each being located on a display. A position of the power required indicator (311) and the power available indicator (313) represent the power available and power required to perform a hover flight maneuver. The power safety system (301) may be operated in a flight planning mode or in a current flight mode. The power safety system (301) uses at least one sensor (309) to measure variables having an effect on the power required and the power available.
Abstract:
Apparatus and a method performed by the apparatus, the apparatus being wholly or partially mounted on an unmanned vehicle (e.g. an unmanned air vehicle) and arranged to act upon a payload (e.g. a lethal effector), the payload being mounted on the unmanned vehicle and, under an action of the apparatus, able to be changed from being in a first state to being in a second state, the method comprising: receiving an instruction that the unmanned vehicle, with the payload mounted thereon, is to travel to a location; determining that the payload is in the first state; and responsive to the step of determining that the payload is in the first state: opposing the payload being changed to being in the second state; and providing, for an entity remote from the unmanned vehicle, an indication that the payload is in the first state.
Abstract:
A system wherein control of a safety-critical system operation is effected by sending a plurality of keywords via a low integrity transmission means.
Abstract:
Munition ou composant de munition comprenant une charge utile associée à une structure 12 d'emport de la charge utile, une partie au moins de la structure 12 étant réalisée en un matériau énergétique comprenant au moins un composant énergétique mélangé à au moins un premier matériau de renfort structural. La munition constitue un engin volant 1 tel un drône, la structure 12 en matériau énergétique formant le corps 2 et/ou les ailes 3 du drône et comportant au moins un logement recevant une motorisation 8 ainsi que le ou les dispositifs d'amorçage 14, 15 et le moyen de commande 16.
a supporting structure (2) including a central rotational support (3) having a vertical axis connected to an essentially horizontal, preferably annular, peripheral support part (4), coaxial with the central support (3), at least one upper rotor (6) including a central hub (7) rotatable about the axis of the central support (3) of the supporting structure (2), an outer channel-section ring (8) supported by the peripheral part (4) of the supporting structure (2) by contactless suspension means (23-27), preferably magnetic suspension means, and a plurality of blades (9) which extend from the hub (7) to the channel-section ring (8) and which are inclined with respect to the horizontal plane; and motor devices (40-43; 50-53) carried at least partially by the peripheral part (4) of the supporting structure (2) and operable to cause rotation of the rotor (6) with respect to this structure (2) in a predetermined direction.
Abstract:
A tracking device includes a motor, top and bottom propellers of opposite sense attached to the stator and rotor of the motor for rotation in opposite directions. Target sensors are provided on the propellers and signals from the target sensors are supplied to a controller that controls the rotation of the motor and the propellers. The tracking device also includes a power supply for the motor and the controller.
