Indra, Radar Made in Indonesia



Wants to prove that Indonesia is not inferior to other nations, Electronics and Telecommunications Research Center Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI PPET) and a division of PT Solutions 247 Radar and Communications System (RCS) makes maritime radar.

Since 2006, PPET LIPI has developed two versions of the radar. Namely radar coastal surveillance and navigation radar ship. In its development, the maritime radar to be named while Indonesian Radar (Indra).

To distinguish, ship navigation radar developed by PT Solutions 247-RCS named Indra-1 and a coastal surveillance radar developed by PPET-LIPI named Indra-2.

Both of these radar technology frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) so that the power consumption and size is much smaller than the radar radars in the market.

Indra-1 managed to detect and measure the distance of a ship that was sailing with accuracy. We are proud of this result. This is proof that we can make the radar is built and functioning properly.

Having escaped a number of stages of the test, on the same occasion the name of Indra-1 was changed to Indonesia Sea Radar (Isra). While Indra-2 is currently still in the trial stage.

Isra is now equipped with additional features result of the creation of the nation. Features include vector maps, maritime information system data AIS (automatic identification system), GPS data and data that is integrated with a compass display. The second measure is also much smaller radar.

Mashury also explained that in the process of developing the radar, it collaborated with a research institute under the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) Netherlands named International Research Center for Telecommunications and Radar (IRCTR).

Why Programmers Should Wear Framework (CodeIgniter or Yii)

The framework can be interpreted simply as a library containing a collection of functions / procedures and classes for specific purposes that are ready to be used so that it can facilitate and accelerate the work of a programmer, without having to create a function or class from the start. Advantages of using the framework are: provide a good structure in our program. Sometimes as programmers, we can create our program structure. the framework, we can make the program more structured, easy to manage, easy to develop. well for those that have been used to make the program itself, usually on their own to create a framework in the program can easily develop, that could be a problem is the use of this framework is the subjective easily according to our perspective. with a framework that is used by many people, it will provide the structure and way of working standards for our applications. The more people who use it, it means a lot of people who agree with the way the framework w...

Microsoft Windows 10 IOT Can for Raft Robot

Thinking of creating a project Internet of Things (IOT) or a robot? Microsoft promises ease to assemble with Windows 10 Starter Kit IOT. In the Starter Kit package for Windows IOT Core and Raspberry Pi 2, supplied equipment such as sensors, electronic components, and various types of cables that are compatible with Windows 10. Package offered by Microsoft in collaboration with Adafruit's online community allows users to create a prototype and build a machine that could send back information to a database. For example, the starter kit can be used to make weather stations that generate data based on interaction with the environment, or communicate with analog photocell sensor to measure light intensity. In fact, the starter kit can also be used to create a robot with wheels legs that can be controlled via a joystick and a Raspberry Pi Unfortunately, the starter kit is sold out in just a few minutes after it was released. But when stocked again later, for those who are interested ...
