Abstract: Measurement of terminal velocity of aerodynamic decelerators is of paramount importance for their optimal design. In this paper, various methods being used for terminal velocity measurement and their pros and cons are discussed in brief. It also presents a novel instrumented plumb line method for terminal velocity measurement. The details of implementation of proposed scheme of terminal velocity measurement and test results are also discussed in this paper.

Abstract: Animation is a broadly explored research field. In spite of it, the field has not been quested much for enhancing the real time user interaction. Research on motion detection has been done for identifying an interacting user’s identity, though it holds certain limitations. Our research presents an expressive facial animation model which identifies the interacting user as well as authenticates. The model animates the face in such a way that it is realistically pronouncing the given text, which is based on the speech input. The input speech is the vocabulary words that have been chosen by us specifically for this model. This intelligent animated model can identify an interacting user and works for that particular user only
