In my earlier post titled “Designing a Sensor Helmet” I defined the groups that the helmet is comprised of. Since the main purpose of the helmet was to detect telemetry, this post I will go into more details on the sensor group. The electronic sensors supplied fall into to types, analog (A) and digital (D). This will determine how the micro controller will read them. The sensors that will be incorporated into the helmet fall into 4 use categories, these are:…
I had posted earlier about the concepts behind smart helmets. I will expand on that with a fundamental design plan of a sensorhelmet. This project will start with a component list of the items that will comprise the sensor helmet. It breaks into 7 distinct category groups with sub components in most of those groups. Category Groups descriptions of the sensor helmet design and requirements. Casing – This is the helmet. Every…
Seems like an odd title since components are those discrete gizmos on a circuit board. Truth be told, the aggregate processing power of the cloud is not fully realized. This cloud of potential is increasing with each passing moment. Everyday, some individual, group, team, research facility, corporate entity, or government agency adds another bit to it. It’s more than the data stored on it. It’s more than the hardware it runs on. It’s more than the software that supports it. …
