HUMAN CYSTEINYL TRNA SYNTHETASE AS AN ANTICANCER TARGET

Not Available This Phase I proposal develops a pioneering technology to automate the docking process of unmanned micro shuttles to the satellites to be serviced. This technology is based on the Laser Dynamic Range Imager (LDRI) which is a dynamic version of the Scannerless Range Imager (SRI), and the Point Tracking (PT) algorithm. The SRI provides the range measurement from the laser unit to the field of view for far or near inspection distances, but it functions only on static scenes. The Point Tracking (PT) software package provides the cross-plane time history motion, while a dynamic adaptation of the SRI generates the range measurements from the laser unit to the field of view. the advantage of this technology over the conventional photogrammetric methods resides in the feasibility in obtaining, simultaneously, the 3-D motion of multiple points without the necessity of using multiple cameras and specific targets. The resolution of the position of a point is dramatically improved, and the elimination of special illuminating conditions in the scene are unnecessaries. This proposal will provide a software package for an automated docking. Commercial applications exist in flight vehicle docking automated navigation, flight refueling, precision materials fabrication, collision avoidance, and modal analysis.
