The Ant Odometer: Stepping on Stilts and Stumps [PDF]
Desert ants, Cataglyphis , navigate in their vast desert habitat by path integration. They continuously integrate directions steered (as determined by their celestial compass) and distances traveled, gauged by as-yet-unknown mechanisms. Here we test the hypothesis that navigating ants measure

Regular maintenance is one step to keep your car looking good, but many people still underestimate the importance of regular maintenance. A tool called Wireless Odometer has been created which can notify vehicle owners through the application if the ...

Odometers and systems of numeration [PDF]
The \(G\)-odometer (also called \(G\)-adic machine), where the sequence \(G\) denotes a numeration scale, is a generalization of the addition of 1 in the group of the \(q\)-adic integers (when \(q=2\), the dyadic odometer is isomorphic to the von Neumann-Kakutani's transformation, also called van der Corput's transformation).

The shearer positioning method with an inertial measurement unit and the odometer is feasible in the longwall coal-mining process. However, the positioning accuracy will continue to decrease, especially for the micro-electromechanical inertial ...

ABSTRACT Under continued climate warming, understanding present‐day permafrost distribution and the controls on ground thaw are critical for predicting permafrost thaw trajectories and associated implications. This study presents a high‐resolution investigation of permafrost extent and active layer thickness (ALT) across a coniferous forested hillslope

INS/Odometer Land Navigation by Accurate Measurement Modeling and Multiple-Model Adaptive Estimation [PDF]
Land vehicle navigation based on the inertial navigation system (INS) and odometers (ODs) is a classical autonomous navigation application and has been extensively studied over the past several decades.

ABSTRACT The existence of permafrost was explored at tropical latitude on Nevado Coropuna (southern Peruvian Andes) using a combination of ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and vertical electrical sounding (VES) in order to strengthen the mutual validation of data processing and interpretation.
