Cart3D
Cart3D allows users to perform automated Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis on a complex geometry. The package includes utilities for geometry import, surface modeling and intersection, mesh generation, flow simulation, and post-processing of results. Geometry acquisition and mesh generation can usually be performed within a few minutes on most current desktop computers.
AeroPod
The AeroPod is a passive device that uses aerodynamic forces to stabilize an instrument package suspended from a kite or tethered blimp. It is a low-altitude custom remote sensing platform craft designed for agricultural and environmental research purposes, but can be used for remote sensing applications such as urban pattern mapping.

Synthetic Vision System for Aeronautical Applications
A synthetic 3D visualization flight display presents flight data information in an intuitive way using 3D computer graphic capabilities. The flight crew can preview and rehearse flight maneuvers in a realistic environment. The display also provides an unimpeded visualization of the surrounding environment in the case of inclement weather, enabling safer flying conditions.
