![]() On fixed wing drones this easy since it can only fly in one direction.īAM050_BMC050_2~1_w734.jpg 734×295 74.3 KBĬompass sensors are very sensitive to magnetic interference. This sensor is important for multi rotor drones because the accelerometer and gyroscope sensors are not enough to let the flight controller know what direction the drone is facing. The compass sensor, or magnetometer if you want to sound fancy, measures the magnetic force, just like a compass. By combining these measurements the flight controller is able to calculate the drones current attitude (angle it is flying at) and perform necessary corrections. The accelerometer measures acceleration forces, and the gyro measures rotational forces. These are the intertial sensors on your drone. Usually the largest chip with the most connectors on your flight controller is the main processor Accelerometer and Gyroscope Most flight controllers have 32bit processors which are more powerful that than 8bit systems, but there are still a few popular 8 bit autopilot platforms such as ardupilot mega which can be found online very cheaply. This is the central unit that runs the autopilot firmware and performs all the calculations. The flight controller reads all of the sensor data and calculates the best commands to send to your drone in order for it to fly. The flight controller is the brains of your drone. Whereas something like a mapping drone will have any autopilot system which includes a flight controller and other equipment such as GPS that will keep the aircraft stable while working out where it is and where it needs to go.ġ5pixhack-autopilot.jpg 1485×1125 231 KB Flight Controller However depending on who you talk to many people use these two words interchangeably.Īs an example on most mini racing quadcopters you use a flight controller that helps keep your craft stable and constantly calculates the best command to send the motors based on the pilot input. There is no fixed definition but I like to refer to an autopilot as a complete system that enables your drone to fly autonomously to way-points etc…, And a flight controller is just the device that will keep your aircraft stable. Flight Controller or Autopilot, whats the difference? I will also discuss the various types and categories of flight controllers. ![]() Here we will discuss what an autopilot is and the important factors you should consider when buying one for your drone. ![]()

![]() ![]() If you take photographs of specific individuals, or people that are facing onto the camera and posing for pictures then our general advice would be that an image release form would be appropriate, especially, if you are intending to publish the images (for example on our webpages, or social media accounts). Whilst photographs are being taken, the photographer should ideally be clearly identifiable to event attendees, a prominent lanyard or ID label may help with this. However, if they have concerns or want to avoid being photographed, they can raise this with the appropriate contact. ![]() Notification should not include reference to consent because realistically they have no freely given choice with regards to wide shots, so do not allude to consent in the messages. Ways to inform people include using notices at the venue in the areas you’ll be taking photographs, notices should be prominent and in simple terms advise people that photography is taking place along with who make aware if they do not want to be included in the photographs. In all circumstances, you will need to make sure attendees know that photography is taking place, ideally ahead of, and certainly during the event. Informing people that photography is taking place: Context will need to be considered, for example a wide group shot of students queuing to join a RUSU sports society may have different privacy implications to a wide group shot of people wanting to speak to our welfare or financial support teams. Even in this example it is likely you will not have everyone facing away from you so we advise you exercise some discretion. Images should be taken from the least obtrusive angles available, for example good practice at a large event or conference, would be that photographs are taken from the back of the auditorium as opposed to the front. ![]() Generally you will not need to obtain explicit consent, via an image release form, for wide shots that are not focusing on specific individuals, for example shots of a crowd or large groups of people with no specific focus on any individual, and where no-one is clearly identifiable in the photograph. Wide shots that do not focus on individuals: Below, we provide some guidance on the most common considerations to be made however, if you have a query which is not addressed please contact to discuss.Īccess the Image Release Forms webpage here. When taking photographs for University purposes, such as at events, it is likely you may capture, or want to capture, images of people, there will therefore be Data Protection considerations to be given thought to. ![]() ![]() ![]() The foraminifera, ammonites, coccolithophores, and other species did disappear suddenly at precisely the right time. The asteroid theory is generally accepted as the most likely explanation of the iridium spike and may be the best explanation for the extinction of marine organisms. Therefore, the asteroid impact theory may be inadequate in explaining the decrease in large land dinosaurs. ![]() ![]() There is also no marked decrease in the number of land plants. Instead, the fossil record indicates a gradual decrease in the number of species of large land dinosaurs over millions of years. However, the fossil record does not show a sharp decrease in the number of large land dinosaurs, as would be expected after an impact large enough to produce global cooling. The plants would eventually die, the large plant-eating dinosaurs would starve, and the meat-eating dinosaurs that preyed on the plant-eaters would also starve. If the iridium concentration at the K/T boundary resulted from a collision at that time between Earth and anĪsteroid, the dust from the collision would have substantially reduced the amount of sunlight available for plants to carry out photosynthesis. The iridium spike seems to mark one of those rare, catastrophic events that took place worldwide.īecause meteorites often contain high concentrations of iridium, Alvarez and his father, American physicist Luis Alvarez, suggested an extraterrestrial origin for the iridium. The iridium concentration is at least twenty times more than normal and is even greater at some locations. It is called an iridium spike because on a graph of iridium concentration versus time, the concentration near the time of the K/T boundary is sharply higher than in adjacent rock layers. ![]() The iridium anomaly, or spike, has been found all over the world in layers of rock dating to the same time. While conducting research near Gubbio, Italy, in the late 1970s, Alvarez discovered an abnormally high concentration of the rare element iridium in a layer of rock at the K/T boundary. The American geologist Walter Alvarez first discovered evidence for this event. A group of paleontologists has proposed that the extinction may have been due to a single, catastrophic event. For these reasons, most geologists assumed the K/T event resulted from a gradual process, such as global cooling.Īn alternate to the hypothesis of extinction by a gradual process has been suggested. In any case, instantaneous events are very rare and usually do not affect more than a small region. Although one million years is a very short time on the geologic time scale, such a margin of error indicates that all the species may not have died out at the same time. Attempts to pinpoint the time of the K/T boundary event result in a margin of error of at least one million years, which means that it could have taken place one million years earlier or one million years later. The transition between the two periods is known as the K/T boundary ("Cretaceous" in German is die Kreidezeit ).ĭetermining whether all the species died out in a few years or over millions of years has proved to be a difficult problem for geologists and pale-ontologists. This drop in the number of species is one of the events that signaled the end of the Cretaceous period and the beginning of the Tertiary period. Overall there was a major, worldwide decrease in the number of species of plants and animals. Amphibians and mammals were only mildly affected. Most species of turtles, crocodilians, lizards, and snakes survived. Other land reptiles were little affected. Land dinosaurs completely disappeared, along with flying reptiles, sea reptiles, and ichthyosaurs. Toward the end of the Cretaceous period, many species of marine organisms became extinct. ![]() ![]() ![]() Credit cards: If you pay for SimPoints by credit card, then you must supply your credit card details when you place your order.Your credit card will be charged when we issue our purchase confirmation email.
