Reference method for simultaneous calibration of the three and more measurement standards for vertical angle measurement is developed. This method can to use for obtaining the systematic biases of the vertical angles measurements for each of the measuring standards relative of the horizontal plain was averaged from measurement results in time their calibration or comparison. For realization of the reference method was developed the autocollimationel electronic measurement standard for the automatization measurement of the vertical angles SeaLineZero_Standard™ (SLZ_S™). Summary standard deviation (k=1) of the vertical angle measurement relative the horizontal plane, from the results of their calibration by reference method, is not more 0,07ʺ…0,15ʺ. This result was obtained without the use the systematic biases, for each measurement standards, as measurements corrections (with opposite sign). The measuring standards, that were developed and researched, are necessary for obtaining the systematic biases of the vertical angle measurement for total stations and theodolites, that have the normed standard error 0,5ʺ and 1ʺ, when these instruments are calibrating.

A new portable measuring device for monitoring intraocular pressure with a non invasive system using a prototype of contact lens has been developed. The contact lens is based on a new organic flexible highly piezo-resisitive film sensor that is glued to the central hole of a lens. The measuring system is wire connected to the contact lens and incorporates user interface methods and a Bluetooth link for bi-directional wireless data transfer. The key design aspects of such architecture are discussed in this paper. The system is designed with an architecture that can be integrated in the future in order to be placed in the contact lens. The discrete system is used to validate the electronic measurement operation and the contact lens sensor (CLS). The measurement instrument can calibrate the differences of the nominal value of the sensor and measure resistances variations that are related to pressure variations. The measuring system and the contact lens sensor were tested with an eye phantom and with enucleated pig eyes by applying pressure changes between 7 to 32 mmHg recording the electrical changes with the portable device.

AbstractA light-weight solid-state electronic distance meter was used to measure short-term ice velocities during a two-day interval on the Coleman Glacier at Mt Baker, Washington, U.S.A. The velocities fluctuated rapidly from zero or almost zero to a large fraction of a meter per day. There was little or no correlation between the movement at different stations and the fluctuations masked any diurnal variation if such existed. The ease of obtaining the results demonstrates the utility of the new equipment for extending the possibilities of glaciological research.
