The Development of Inertial Navigation
AN INERTIAL navigation system is a complex mechanism. As such, it was never invented; rather it evolved out of the work of many men. Newton gave us the laws of dynamics which enabled us to understand and use the accelerometer and gyroscope. Foucault's work with the gyroscope stimulated much thought and research on uses of the gyro.

Ferroelectric Quantum Dots for Retinomorphic In‐Sensor Computing
This work has provided a protocol for fabricating retinomorphic phototransistors by integrating ferroelectric ligands with quantum dots. The resulting device combines ferroelectricity, optical responsiveness, and low‐power operation to enable adaptive signal amplification and high recognition accuracy under low‐light conditions, while supporting ...

New mechanization equations for aided inertial navigation systems [PDF]
Inertial navigation equations are developed which use area navigation (RNAV) waypoints and runway references as coodinate centers. The formulation is designed for aided inertial navigation systems and gives a high numerical accuracy through all phases of

Fully 3D‐printed modular microrobots capable of performing a broad range of tasks across diverse environments are demonstrated. The key breakthrough lies in the development of a large‐displacement microactuator for multi‐environment navigation and a mesoscale multimaterial 3D printing platform for on‐demand module fabrication.
