May 1, 1997 — Acheson Colloids Co. has produced screen-printed conductive films used in touchpad keyboards such as those on computers, automated teller machines, cellular phones and microwave ovens. But when a giant supplier of electrical devices challenged...
Laser Technique Reveals Metal Contamination in Soil
May 1, 1997 — Commercial ships require routine repainting, and when the old paint is sandblasted from the anchors and hulls, lead and other metals contaminate the soil. Environmental assessment of these sites typically involves collecting soil samples at various...
Machine Vision Ensures Quality in Bottle Tops
May 1, 1997 — Over 98 percent of bottles sold are returned, thanks to refundable deposits, and each one is refilled and reused by breweries 16 to 18 times. But, the wear and tear can sometimes produce almost undetectable cracks and chips in the bottle-top...
Sensor Helps Scrub Away That Troublesome Lasagna
May 1, 1997 — Whether it's baked-on lasagna or simple chicken soup, Maytag is making use of advanced sensors and technologies to offer dishwasher owners reductions in energy use, operational costs, water consumption and washing time. This "smart" dishwasher,...
Binocular System Improves Target Tracking
Apr 1, 1997 — Initial target acquisition presents problems for operators of portable video trackers. With a portable tracker, the operator cannot sit on the mount, but typically acquires the target with a joystick. In a featureless sky, it is often difficult to...
Fast, High-Resolution Cameras Image the Sun's Surface
Apr 1, 1997 — To the average person, the sun is a celestial body around which the Earth and other planets revolve. It's a source of warmth and light. Many don't realize that the sun is a star, and an interesting one at that. But researchers at the Big Bear Solar...
Infrared Imager Helps Evaluate Papermaking Process
Apr 1, 1997 — The papermaking industry is among the highest consumers of energy in the US, and researchers at the Institute of Paper Science and Technology (IPST) in Atlanta are working to make the process more energy efficient. They chose Secaucus, N.J.-based...
Solar-Powered Camera Focuses on Eagles
Apr 1, 1997 — Northeast Utilities and the Massachusetts Div. of Fisheries and Wildlife have been working together since 1989 to protect and nurture a nest of bald eagles at Barton Cove, in Gill, Mass., one of only nine known nests in the state. There are five in...
Laser Sensors Help Reduce Waste at Wood Fiberboard Plant
Mar 1, 1997 — Eliminating waste is a prime concern for any manufacturing plant, not only from the financial standpoint, but also from the environmental one. At a Swanboard AB wood fiberboard manufacturing plant in Larvik, Norway, the problem was how to...
On-Line Inspection System Produces 99% Satisfaction
Mar 1, 1997 — The thought of inspecting a million cans of food a day -- almost 700 cans per minute -- is daunting even with the advantages of today's high-speed automation. And when you add to the job a goal of 99 percent overall product quality and production...
