Brain Cortex Desiccator Part 24

The jar floor design is curved to strengthen the jar. This forms an ideal shape for creating a jar desiccator. The top plate is bolted to the apex and the plentiful underlying perimeter space stores numerous bags of free desiccant. The jar bottom indentation prevents the bolt from touching or scratching the surface of a table where the jar is setting.

BRAIN CORTEX DESICCATOR PART 24
Nearly every large brain cortex in a jar needs a desiccator to prevent or remove moisture from internally forming on the walls when hermetically sealed.

DESIGN
The Desiccator design is completed and makes good use of the existing 3-liter jar floor design. As seen in the photo, the floor is curved in the upward direction with a sagitta of about .75-inch. (In geometry, the sagitta of a circular arc is the distance from the center of the arc to the center of its base.)

DISICCATION PLATE
A desiccator plate is fabricated from transparent cut into a disk of maximum diameter that will fit through the jar opening. A hole at the center accepts a mounting bolt. Under the plate, bags of free desiccant are distributed.

FREE DESICCANT
Free desiccant is obtained in large bags found in large bottles of Centrum (310 count) and other vitamins. Numerous other products include desiccant bags and these work too.

BATTERY ARRAY
At the plate perimeter is the array of battery holders, mounted flush with the plate. The combination of the battery holders and the plate holds the desiccant in place.

PLATE REMOVAL
In the updated desiccator plate design, the diameter determines a perimeter that meets the battery holders but does not extend under. The facilitates easy plate removal for changing desiccant without the need to remove the battery holders.

AAR Control Boiler Plate

CONTROL BOILER PLATE
The first all-in-one AAR machine has ten toggle switches, two sliders and sixteen turn dials for a total of 28 controls. Of the sixteen turn dials, two sets of eight have different styles, which are divided into two groups at the right side of the machine. The style is either a marked or unmarked dial. Unmarked Turn Dials can mark their positions by feedback. Each toggle switch has two states or functions, provided a total of twenty possible functions, bringing the total possible control functions up to 38. The actual number of functions available on May 2013 is 28 and five more controls were added on May 30th bringing the total to 33.

AAR Machine Projected Control Mapping

AAR PROJECTIVE MAPPING
The AAR Altercated Alternated Reality Machine Control Panel uses Projective Mapping of controls.The machine's functions can be mapped onto the actual function controls, including various toggle switches and turn dials.

Projection involves the connection between the Boiler Face Plate and the actual functions so that a visual of actual controls is in effect. There are sufficient controls to map all 30 functions and additional controls are available for another five functions. The current list of controls are detailed at the link. These are subject to change at any time.

Inference Engine Icon

INFERENCE ENGINE TELESCOPE ICON RELEASED
A new telescope icon control is released for the IET Inference Engine Telescope and master telescope control panel.

The actual icon remains in a thumbnail format for control and for representations in the telescope Face Plate. The following links relate the IET icon to supporting posts and information.
