An electronic assembly includes an electronic device and a solar shield coupled to the electronic device. The solar shield has an attachment portion which attaches to the electronic device, and a shield portion coupled to the attachment portion. The shield portion prevents direct sunlight from substantially reaching a section of the electronic device. The shield portion defines (i) at least a portion of an air intake, (ii) at least a portion of an air exhaust, and (iii) at least a portion of an air passageway which extends from the air intake to the air exhaust. The air passageway overlies the section of the electronic device enabling ambient air adjacent the air intake to form natural convective airflow into the air intake and out the air exhaust through the air passageway to carry away heat from the section of the electronic device during electronic operation of the electronic device.

A heterodyne receiver includes first and second laser sources such as laser diodes which generate optical receiver oscillator (RO) signals having respective RO frequencies. Temperature control circuitry controls a temperature difference between the operating temperatures of the sources such that the RO frequencies differ by a difference frequency corresponding to the temperature difference, the difference frequency being offset from a frequency of a modulated millimeter-wave signal by a predetermined intermediate frequency. An electro-optical nonlinear mixer such as a photodiode receives the optical RO signals and the modulated millimeter-wave signal and generates an electrical intermediate-frequency (IF) signal, which is provided to an electrical amplifier/detector to detect the output signal corresponding to the modulation of the modulated millimeter-wave signal. The receiver may be used as part of a heterodyne transceiver which includes a transmitter, and the transmitter may also employ an optical heterodyne structure for generating a millimeter-wave signal for transmission.

A deployable stationary device includes a device support, rate gyros supported by the device support, the rate gyros being oriented along different axes, and a controller supported by the device support. The controller is arranged to receive rate gyro signals from the rate gyros. Each rate gyro signal indicates a rate of rotation about a respective axis associated with a particular rate gyro. The controller is further arranged to perform a vector sum operation based on the rate gyro signals, and generate a direction signal which identifies a direction resulting from performance of the vector summing operation. Such a deployable stationary device is capable of operating as one of a network of such devices in a surveillance system to enable detection and precise location of suspicious activity.

A technique provides a remote adjustment to a portion of an airplane engine. The technique involves attaching a remote adjuster to the portion of the engine at a proximate location to the engine while the engine is not running. The portion is configured to receive a direct manual adjustment from a user while the engine is running and while the user is in direct physical contact with the portion. The technique further involves, after attaching the remote adjuster to the portion of the engine, supplying user input to the remote adjuster at a distal location to the engine to provide a remote adjustment to the portion of the engine through the remote adjuster in place of the direct manual adjustment from the user. The technique further involves, after supplying the user input to the remote adjuster, removing the remote adjuster from the portion of the engine.

An engine test system includes a base constructed and arranged to reside at a fixed location. The system further includes an engine support member constructed and arranged to concurrently support an engine and move relative to the base. The system further includes a linear transducer having (i) a first portion supported by the base, (ii) a second portion supported by the engine support member, and (iii) a circuit adjacent the first and second portions. The circuit is constructed and arranged to provide a linear transducer signal identifying an amount of linear compression and/or tension between the engine support member and the base along a predefined direction. When the linear transducer resides at a break in station, such an embodiment provides a simple, low cost mechanism which is capable of providing a horsepower measurement for every engine passing through the break in station.
