| "THEORIES OF BIO-MECHANICAL FLIGHT" In the early 1950's Charles Zimmerman a noted American aeronautical scholar conducted a period of research exploring notions of flight control systems whereby a pilot could control a machine of flight by shifting their weight over the centre of gravity, enabling the craft to be navigational. Triclops International will conduct a series of experiments modelling aspects of Charles Zimmerman's flight control theories and hopefully establish conclusive results towards the future development of airborne machines for performance. Concluding recent extensive research, a design module and preliminary prototype construction of an Air Cushioned Vehicle (A.C.V.) has been established in Sydney, Australia. This performance vehicle will be taken to Linz, Austria and will endure a week long period of experimentation investigating the following aspects of bio-mechanical flight theory; # Bodily control system, whereby shifting the centre of gravity can the airborne craft be controlled? # Correlating data of manoeuvrability of craft over a pre-determined course. # Amount of thrust produced, how much height can the craft gain from the ground whilst maintaining a level of control? # Can perceptional control of pilot be disturbed by interfacing craft with a shifting (kinetic) horizontal plane? # Monitoring and correlating data of pilots physical status. Can the pilots condition of control be efficiency modified under controlled environments? eg; heat, cold, wind etc |
