Abstract: An apparatus for analysing and mapping soil and/or terrain for physical and/or chemical
properties thereof, comprises a sensor 1 for measuring conductivity of soil by
electromagnetic induction, the device being movable over an area of ground to be
analysed and mapped, a differential global positioning satellite (DGPS) receiver system
12 for determining the location of the sensor 1 on the area of the ground 30 to be
analysed and mapped, and a personal computer (PC) 19 in communication with sensor
1 and DGPS system 12 for capturing the ground conductivity data from the sensor 1 in
association with the determined location of the sensor 1 at which the conductivity data
are obtained. The captured data can subsequently be used to generate soil maps of the
area 30, showing variations in a range of soil parameters such as nutrients, pH, water
content or soil type, from which improved ground management strategies can be
developed.

Abstract: A code plate (6) of an incremental encoder is fixedly mounted to a first rotor (4) which is rotatably supported on a housing (1); a small-diameter portion (4a) and a large-diameter portion (4b) are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the first rotor; and furthermore a pair of engaging projections (17a/17b) are formed on both sides of a clearance groove (16) formed in the large-diameter portion. A rotating ring is mounted on the inside bottom surface of the housing; on the rotating ring is formed a driven gear through a range of about 90 degrees, and a shield plate is erected in a position corresponding to the driven gear. Five photo-interrupters (13a-13e) are arranged astride the shield plate on the path of rotation of the rotating ring, so that the position of the rotating ring can be detected by the ON/OFF operation of the photo-interrupters. On the housing an intermediate gear (14) is rotatably supported, and is in constant mesh with the driven gear. On the intermediate gear are provided a first tooth portion and a second tooth portion, which are arranged 45 degrees apart from each other. The first tooth portion faces the small-diameter portion of the first rotor, while the second tooth portion faces the large-diameter portion, whereby the intermediate gear is turned through about 90 degrees by the engaging projections during one rotation of the first rotor, thus turning the rotating ring by two teeth of the driven gear.

Abstract: a method for indoor wear testing tires includes the steps of characterizing a vehicle and a wear test course and combining the characterized data to create input data for an indoor wear test machine. The input data allows the indoor wear test machine to accurately simulate an outdoor wear test course for the characterized vehicle. The method allows multiple wear test courses to be used with a single characterized vehicle and allows a single wear test course to be used with multiple characterized vehicles. The method allows tires to be wear tested in relatively short time periods in the controlled environment of the indoor laboratory. In addition, the method is relatively easy to set up and perform.

Abstract: A memory controller includes an incrementer for predicting a next address to be asserted by a processor. The incrementer, structurally a counter, is configurable to wrap at a wrap boundary and to indicate when a predicted address crosses a page boundary if the memory is in page mode. This incrementer provides accurate predictions even where successor addresses are on different pages or, in the case of address loops, even in some cases in which the successor address is not consecutive. Thus, the number of accurate address predictions is increased, enhancing overall performance. The invention has particular applicability to signal processing applications with instructions loops that cross one or more page boundaries.
