Rplidar A2 Accuracy, Ramiro O. Garcia Sep 2019

Rplidar A2 Accuracy, Ramiro O. Garcia

STAR Program Research Presentations

Traffic is not only a source of frustration but also a leading cause of death for people under 35 years of age. Recent research has focused on how driver assistance technology can be used to mitigate traffic fatalities and create more enjoyable commutes. In addition, self-driving vehicles can reduce fuel consumption the amount by 5% and increases the number of cars on the highway. To achieve this we need to research reliable sensors. This summer I research Rplidar A2 sensor which hopefully will be responsible for recording distance to the preceding car and helping prevent Insider Attacks or Misbehaviors of …

A First Look At Sublimation Rates In Toss Island Region, Antarctica, Rebecca Baiman, Scott Landolt

STAR Program Research Presentations

70% of Earth’s fresh water is held in Antarctica ice sheet. If the sheet melts, it has the potential to raise global sea levels by 190 feet (Klekociuk and Wiennecke, 2016). As the climate changes, it is imperative that to understand precipitation systems of Antarctica in order to measure and predict weather around the world. One aspect of precipitation events that we do not understand fully in Antarctica is sublimation. Data was collected from four Ott Pluvio Precipitation Gauges with Belfort Double Alter Shields placed in and around the Ross Ice Shelf from November of 2017 to present. An R …
