  2. Track while scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Track_while_scan

    In track-while-scan mode the radar has the ability to acquire and lock/track multiple targets while simultaneously providing a view of the surrounding airspace, which in turn aids the pilot and or operator in maintaining better situational awareness.

  3. Terrain awareness and warning system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrain_awareness_and...

    In aviation, a terrain awareness and warning system ( TAWS) is generally an on-board system aimed at preventing unintentional impacts with the ground, termed "controlled flight into terrain" accidents, or CFIT. [1] The specific systems currently in use are the ground proximity warning system (GPWS) and the enhanced ground proximity warning ...

  4. Digital camera modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_camera_modes

    Text mode increases in-camera sharpening to allow to photograph texts. Portrait mode widens the aperture to throw the background out of focus (see Bokeh). The camera may recognize and focus on a human face. Night portrait modes use an exposure long enough to capture background detail, with fill-in flash to illuminate a nearby subject.

  5. Salience network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salience_network

    The salience network is theorized to mediate switching between the default mode network and central executive network.. The salience network (SN), also known anatomically as the midcingulo-insular network (M-CIN) or ventral attention network, is a large scale network of the human brain that is primarily composed of the anterior insula (AI) and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC).

  6. Altered state of consciousness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altered_state_of_consciousness

    An altered state of consciousness ( ASC ), [1] also called an altered state of mind, altered mental status ( AMS) or mind alteration, is any condition which is significantly different from a normal waking state. By 1892, the expression was in use in relation to hypnosis, [2] though there is an ongoing debate as to whether hypnosis is to be ...

  8. Drones in wildfire management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drones_in_wildfire_management

    Drones, also known as Unmanned Aerial Systems/Vehicles (UAS/UAV), or Remotely Piloted Aircraft, are used in wildfire surveillance and suppression. [1] [2] They help in the detection, containment, and extinguishing of fires. [3] They are also used for locating a hot spot, firebreak breaches, and then to deliver water to the affected site. [4]

  9. Mode field diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_field_diameter

    Mode field diameter. In fiber optics, the mode field diameter (MFD) is a measure of the width of an irradiance distribution, i.e., the optical power per unit area, across the end face of a single-mode fiber. It is analogous to the measure of the beam diameter for a beam propagating in free space. The mode field diameter is defined as twice the ...

    European route E25 is a north–south European route from Hook of Holland in the Netherlands, to Palermo in Italy which includes ferry crossings from Genoa to Bastia ( Corsica ), from Bonifacio to Porto Torres ( Sardinia) and from Cagliari to Palermo ( Sicily ).

  11. Neural correlates of consciousness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_correlates_of...

    The neural correlates of consciousness ( NCC) are the minimal set of neuronal events and mechanisms sufficient for the occurrence of the mental states to which they are related. [2] Neuroscientists use empirical approaches to discover neural correlates of subjective phenomena; that is, neural changes which necessarily and regularly correlate ...
