Crows are members of the Corvidae family, which also includes ravens, magpies, and blue jays. Loud, rambunctious, and very intelligent, crows are most often associated with a long history of fear and loathing. They are considered pests by farmers trying to protect their crops and seedlings. Many people fear them simply because of their black feathers, which are often associating them with death.
Modern Infrared Search and Track systems can search, track and target an enemy aircraft while having a better ability to differentiate discreet aircraft in formations and intermediate ranges than many traditional fighter radar systems fielded today.
How does a light detection and ranging system work? There are 4 parts of an airborne LiDAR. These 4 parts of a LiDAR system work together to produce highly accurate, usable results: 1  LiDAR sensors scan the ground from side to side as the plane flies. 2  GPS receivers track the altitude and location of the airplane. 3  Inertial measurement units (IMU) tracks the tilt of the airplane as it flies.
