WATERCRAFT MANEUVERING SYSTEM, AND WATERCRAFT INCLUDING THE SAME
A watercraft maneuvering system includes watercraft maneuvering stations to steer and adjust a propulsive force of a watercraft and including a main station including a steering wheel to steer the watercraft and an acceleration lever to adjust the propulsive force, and a substation spaced apart from the main station and including a joystick to both steer the watercraft and adjust the propulsive force. By operating a joystick button provided in the substation, an operative station may be switched from the main station to the substation. At the same time, a control mode may be switched to a joystick mode.
Skin simulation device, electronic apparatus evaluation method, and electronic apparatus evaluation system
To provide a skin simulation device, an electronic apparatus evaluation method, and an electronic apparatus evaluation system that make it possible to reproduce the characteristics of a skin temperature of a human body. The skin simulation device according to an embodiment of the present technology includes a sheet-shaped simulated skin member that includes an outer surface and an inner surface, and a subcutaneous unit that includes a subcutaneous temperature detector and a subcutaneous temperature adjusting mechanism. The subcutaneous temperature detector is capable of detecting a temperature of the inner surface. The subcutaneous temperature adjusting mechanism is capable of adjusting the temperature of the inner surface. This makes it possible to adjust the temperature of the inner surface of the simulated skin member (a subcutaneous temperature), and to reproduce the characteristics of a skin temperature of a human body.
TROLLING MOTOR AND SONAR DEVICE DIRECTIONAL CONTROL
Example steering control systems and methods for multiple devices are provided herein. A system includes a trolling motor assembly having a propulsion motor and a steering actuator and a sonar assembly comprising a transducer assembly and a directional actuator. The system further includes a user input assembly that is configured to detect user activity related to controlling operation of the trolling motor assembly and operation of the sonar assembly. The system further includes a processor that is configured to determine a direction of turn based on user activity, generate an electrical turning input signal indicating the direction of turn, and direct either one or both of the steering actuator and the directional actuator, via the turning input signal, to adjust a direction of either one or both of the propulsion motor and the transducer assembly accordingly.
