45 results about "Glider" patented technology

The glider is a pattern that travels across the board in Conway's Game of Life. It was first discovered by Richard K. Guy in 1970, while John Conway's group was attempting to track the evolution of the R-pentomino. Gliders are the smallest spaceships, and they travel diagonally at a speed of one cell every four generations, or c/4. The glider is often produced from randomly generated starting configurations.

A craft is provided with a lever that can control the power / speed of the craft and semi-automatically transition the craft in various modes of operation. This makes control of the craft somewhat similar to control of a boat, thereby bringing a maritime flight control experience to a wing-in-ground effect vehicles, hydrofoiling vessels, seagliders, and seaplanes. Further, various audio, visual, and / or haptic devices in the cockpit can provide alerts / feedback to the operator on the use of the lever and mode transitions.

Automated towed glider control system

An automated control system for a glider towed by a tug employs a sensor system (e.g., cameras mounted on at least one of the aircraft) to determine the relative position and velocity of the glider. A controller determines corrections to the flight characteristics of the glider in response to this data from the sensor system to maintain the glider on the surface of a limit sphere extending behind the tug with a predetermined radius based on the length of the tow cable. An interface to the flight controls of the glider maintains the desired flight characteristics of the glider provided by the controller.
