SHIPS FOG PROBLEM
ENDED, SAYS ENGINEER
Brooklyn Inventor Announces
Device Which Will Indicate
Distance Between Vessels.

Otto Frlckc, n civil engineer Of 81
hanson place. Brooklyn, formerly a Ger
man naval officer and at one time assist
ant TO Nikola Tesla, has invented a
device to detect the presence of ships
IN a log. Mr.. Fricke said yesterday
that he believes his invention IL a de-
cided Improvement over the device re-
Gently by Dr. Arthur Cor
don Webster of Clark University.
Dr. Webster's invention. which was
recently described In THE sun, IL de-
signed to show the direction from which
the sound of n fog horn on another ves-
sci comes. Mr.. F'ricke's device not only
indicates the direction Of the sound. but
also the distance at which the other ves-
sci Is located.
The inventor proposes to install around
the ships deck IA series of sound rcceiv-
ing instruments which electrically oper-
rate a marking pencil on a chart placed
IN the pilot house. These so-called PEN
ellis. or tintinR points. are attached to a
revolving bell operated by clockwork.
which liz set In motion by a wireless
hash from the oncoming vessel. which IL
supposed to come simultaneously with
the blowing Of the fog horn. When the
sound waves are received the tinting
w he'N VIZ nv llt
difference in the time between the re-
ceipt OF the wireless flash and the sound
denote the speed At which the sound is
travelling and by deduction indicates on
the chart the distance of the other ship.
Mr.. Fricke says this apparatus pro-
duces n record and a chart of all the
positions of vessels and other objects
within n radius of ten miles around the
ship on which his instrument is installed.
The indicated positions on the chart
change AZ the distant objects change
their relative positions to zach other.
BY this means. therefore,, the navigator
has a chart in front Of him on which
there Is n record of his and other ships
positions to produce for court investiga-
lions of accidents.
The invention depends upon the stimuli
taneous transmission of a wireless flash
with the blowing OF the fog horn and
consists in the combined use Of the
differences in speed of electricity and
sound.
