Lenses

A lens is a custom view of Connexions content. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see Connexions through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to Connexions materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

Who can create a lens?

Any individual Connexions member, a community, or a respected organization.

What are tags? tag icon

Tags are descriptors added by lens makers to help label content, attaching a vocabulary that is meaningful in the context of the lens.

Summary: Concludes our project of radar.

Possible Improvements

There are many improvements that we can make to our system in order to create better results. First of all, we need to increase the range of the detection, not having to limit our input signals as much to get accurate results. We need to adjust with the sampling rate that we use in order to be able to detect smaller velocities as well as more accurate ranges. We could optimize the algorithm for the peak locator in the velocity analysis to give more accurate results.

In the end, we managed to create a system that created signals to send out with a RADAR, as well as simulate a returned signal for objects a specific distance away or moving at a certain velocity. We were able to detect the range for objects that were fairly close, and calculate the velocity for objects moving extremely fast.

We would like to thank Dr. Courtney Lane and Chris Rozell for all their help.

My Favorites (?)

'My Favorites' is a special kind of lens which you can use to bookmark modules and collections directly in Connexions. 'My Favorites' can only be seen by you, and collections saved in 'My Favorites' can remember the last module you were on. You need a Connexions account to use 'My Favorites'.
