![]() ![]() As distance increases from the radar, the reported value will be for increasing heights above the earth's surface. However, since the radar only measures radial velocity, the strength of the wind will always be less than what is actually occurring unless the wind is moving directly toward or away from the radar.Īlso, the surface winds are only for areas near the radar. It is useful for determining areas of strong wind from downbursts or detecting the speed of cold fronts. It is very important to know where the radar is located as that is your reference point for proper interpolation of the wind's motion.īase Velocity images provides a picture of the basic wind field from the ½° elevation scan. In all velocity images, red colors indicate wind moving away from the radar with green colors representing wind moving toward the radar. This is called radial velocity as it is the component of the target's motion that is along the direction of the radar beam. However, the only motion it can "see" is either directly toward or away from the radar. One of the best features on the 88d Doppler radar is its ability to detect motion.

This image is available upon completion of the ½° elevation scan during each volume scan. There are two versions of Base Reflectivity image the short range version which extends out to 124 nm (about 143 miles) and the long range version which extends out to 248 nm (about 286 miles). Taken from the lowest (½° elevation) slice, it is the primary image used to "see what's out there". There are two types available on the web Base (or ½° elevation) reflectivity and Composite reflectivity.īase Reflectivity is the default image. ![]() These images are just as they sound as they paint a picture of the weather from the energy reflected back to the radar. ![]()

Note that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) states that "the maximum chest acceleration shall not exceed 60 times gravity for time periods longer than 3 milliseconds". The impact creates a force 28 times gravity!!Ī person sitting inside the car with seat belts on will de-accelerate with a force 28 times gravity.

Note! - The deformation slow-down distance is very important and the key to limit the forces acting on passengers in a car crash. The deformation slow-down distance can be calculated as The average impact force can be calculated as In a car crash the dynamic energy is converted to work and equation 1 and 2 can be combined to In an impact where the object is not deformed - the work made by the impact force slowing down the moving object equals to the work done by a spring force - and can be expressed asį max = maximum force at the end of the deformation (N, lb f) When a crumple zone deforms in a car crash the average impact force is designed to be as constant as possible. ![]() S = deformation distance, crumple zone (m, ft) In an impact - like a car crash - the work made by the impact force slowing down an moving object over a distance by deforming the crumple zone can be expressed asį avg = average impact force during deformation (N, lb f) The dynamic kinetic energy of a moving object, like a falling ball or a driving car, can be expressed as ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Update: He has added Virtual ANS to the collection and it is a very interesting and fun iPad app! PixiVisor by the creator of Sunvox, Alexander Zolotov also does video and animation and is worth checking out, and is multi-platform like so many others of his projects. It lets you take a picture or load one from the camera roll to create a spectrum for use as an oscillator. One app with a unique approach is PPG Wavegenerator for the iPad. An other app that works in a similar way and lets you load your own samples, is Gliss. It sounds convinsingly old school to me, and is very simple to understand. Oramics, which follows this principle, is available as an iPhone app and is not much money for a lot of fun. Early film sound was based on this same principle, where an optical strip on the side of the photo strip was used to create the sound track for the movie. Daphne Oram invented a machine that was able to create sound out of hand written lines, and the ANS synthesizer made use of a glass plate for similar results. The idea has been around for a lot longer than you may think. For now, let's have a look at.īefore you can do any image so sound (and hopefully back) conversion, you need something that can do the job for you. This should also give you an idea about how most programs work in principle, but more on that later. If your software allows you to view the audio as a spectrum, or even as a frequency analysis, you can get a lot of info about that sound very quickly. It seems that there are some universal ways we look at sound, literally, as computer musicians - as a waveform, or blocks of arrangements that are "read" from left to right, just as we read text (well, at least in English). Since we humans are so visually oriented it is convenient for us to link the two together. Significant amount of sounds is produced for videos, installations, visualizations and the group of authors regularly participate in art exhibitions and screenings.Creating audio from images is a very intuitive way to compose sounds. At the end of the workshop they are able to apply the knowledge in practice and implement graphical sound to their projects. Small groups of women learn about theoretical background of graphical sound and they practice. ČIPke (Ljubljana, Slovenia), a non-profit initiative for researching the conditions for women who are active in the context of science, technology and media art, develops and organizes practical educational workshops on graphical sound synthesis. Software solutions are simple and enable even beginners reach original and valuable results. They are still in use in radio, film, video, television, new media art and industry and in masterpieces as well. In twenty-first century, tools and technologies for synthesizing sound from light comprise a set of software solutions for different operational systems including applications for mobile devices. Nowadays, significant tools and achievements resulting from the method of graphical sound are available to audience in specialized archives and educational institutions. In twentieth century graphical sounds were explored in radio, film, video and television almost in the Soviet Union, Germany, France, United Kingdom and the United States of America. Various tools and technologies were used to connect or translate images to sounds (gravicembalo, harpsicord, pyrophone, etc.). Sachs, etc.) while artists have tried to link the image and sound in practice (G. Many significant European culture leaders associated image and sound theoretically (Pythagoras, I. Technology of sound synthesis from a light is a combination of hundreds of years of research in mathematics, optics, electronics, art theory, psychology and communications. ![]() ![]() However, duplicity's biggest flaw lies in its incremental model - a chain of dependent backups starts with a full backup followed by a number of incremental ones, and ends when another full backup is uploaded.

They have a choreographed opening ceremonies. The Olympics do not just start with some folks running races or lifting weights. If you just come out and start the introductions there is no show. If you are going to be the Master of Ceremonies for an event, here are ten tips that will help you contribute to the success and help give your audience a good experience:ġ. ![]() There is a lot to do as the MC, and a slip up can cause the vibe of the meeting to hit the floor. When you have to balance between both roles (speaker and MC), it can be a juggling act….and I mean juggling knives or fire. This means that I am juggling educational / motivational material with the important tasks of introducing the speakers and keeping the whole schedule running on time. My “ Conference Catalyst” program is often morphed into an MC style role at multi-day events. Other years we are left thinking “I wish Billy Crystal was the MC”. Mr Crystal sets the tone for the event on the years they are wise enough to ask him to serve as the host. ![]() Over my life I have seen a variety of celebrities host the Oscars, but nobody (in my opinion) holds a candle to Billy Crystal. When I think of how an MC can make a difference in the success of an event I am reminded of the Academy Awards. In many ways the MC role can be more difficult. I have served as the MC for several events, and find that it involves a different set of skills from giving a speech, but at the same time a good Master of Ceremonies needs similar traits to a speaker. As someone who cares deeply about serving her audiences, she did not want to “wing-it”, and thus was collecting best practices and ideas.īeing an Emcee (or is it MC?) is different from being a speaker.

What this seemingly scarce (maybe it's me?) resource gets you falls in line with The Banner Saga's theme of survival. Should you win a few fights or accidentally stumble across the lesser of evils when making decisions, you'll earn renown. If things prove too difficult, though, you can adjust the difficulty setting at any time, if only to see the well-written story through to the end. After only an hour or two you'll find these stressful situations to be far more daunting than the battles ahead-especially considering you can't manually save, which often feels more like a curse than a blessing. It's impossible not to second guess your decisions when even seemingly easy solutions have outcomes that are impossible to predict. As you wander from one town to the next, you're constantly forced to make tough decisions, the outcomes of which typically range from "oh God I'm screwed" to "FUUUUUUUUUUUUU." Do you face the huge army of Dredge on your heels and lose dozens of clansmen? Or do you make the choice to flee, leaving the sick and elderly behind to die? You won't permanently lose party members in battle-but you will when you let a group of travelers join your caravan and they end up shanking your tank before stealing your supplies. Even when you're winning, it always feels like you've lost.īut the battles are nothing compared to gut wrenching tragedy that is the in-between travels of your caravan. Thankfully, your soldiers don't die when defeated (otherwise The Banner Saga would be impossible to complete), though they do suffer health and damage penalties until fully rested, making the fact that another battle is inevitably just around the corner all the more devastating. The difficulty isn't impossible to overcome, but it does force you to take advantage of every ability and item at your disposal. No matter the outcome, your journey continues. Even a single misstep can result in losing a battle, and when you win fights, you'll often do so with only a unit or two left standing. Enemy AI is frustratingly sharp, as your foes prioritize killing blows and ganging up on a single, powerful unit. These grid-based fights are similar to those in games like Final Fantasy Tactics or Fire Emblem, where you have access to a dozen or so classes, each with various strengths and weaknesses. Initially, hopelessness comes in the form of challenging tactical battles. Where many games task you with saving the world, The Banner Saga makes it clear that a handful of heroes can't do much when a million enemies are knocking at their doorstep. Which is to say, you're basically screwed. Every trek is a perilous one, and while no one in your caravan will die of dysentery, you must defend them from brigands, Dredge, and even your own greedy clansmen, all while managing the supplies necessary to keep your followers from starving to death. Only, you quickly find out no such thing exists. With a caravan of survivors under your command, it's your responsibility to lead them to safety. ![]() ![]() Its fascinating viking-inspired setting is overrun by the Dredge, a race of malicious rock people bent on destroying the world-your town included. Part tactical RPG, part Oregon Trail, and part depression simulator, The Banner Saga offers a rewarding journey drenched in misery. The Banner Saga is undeniably cruel, but its endless series of brutal scenarios plays perfectly into its wonderful, mature end-of-the-world tale. Oh, and I have no currency left to buy anymore supplies. By the time I reach the next town, half my caravan is dead from starvation. Reload, third option nothing happens for awhile-until the thieves murder my guards and steal every ounce of food I have left. I choose the second panic spreads, morale is reduced to "super abysmal," and some of my clansman kill each other out of desperation. I choose the first panic spreads, reducing overall morale to "abysmal." Cue the reload to a checkpoint an hour back.
