This work offers a practical, non-theoretical introduction to the principles, application and benefits of multi-sensor technology in smart weapon development, surveillance systems, and an increasing variety of non-military applications. It also provides an overview of MMW (Millimeter-Wave) and IR (infrared) sensor constraints, design principles, system alternatives and targeting applications.

Simply put, Julia Fordham's album Concrete Love, floats like a butterfly and delivers like a ton of bricks. Concrete Lovewas produced with characteristic perception by Larry Klein(Joni Mitchell) and features, among its stellar ensemble, seven-time Grammy nominee India.Arie, who joins Julia on the title track, "Concrete Love." The pairing of their unique sultry vocals is an extraordinarily emotional and spiritual moment. The album also highlights a memorable duet with Joe Henry, who according to the Los Angeles Times"is more than simply a talented singer-songwriter. He's also fearless, risky and enlightened." Also lending their talents is the instantly identifiable virtuosity of the legendary Billy Prestonon Hammond B-3 Organ and Wurlitzer Electric Piano, along with dynamic backing vocals by Sweet Pea Atkinsonand Sir Harry Bowens(Was (Not Was), Bonnie Raitt). Julia also enlisted two trusted collaborators--songwriter Gary Clark(Danny Wilson, Transistor), who co-wrote four key tracks with Fordham and Larry Klein, to whom she credits the album's distinctively "groovalicious" ambiance. The result is an unquestionably inspired departure, evoking everything from Dusty In Memphis to classic Torch and Soul traditions to the ineffable pleasures of Fordham's own, precisely calibrated, four-octave range. The album's 11 selections comprise a brilliant advance for an artist whose richly textured melodies and emotionally resonant lyrics have been given potent and persuasive new stylistic settings. Concrete Loveshowcases, with stunning cinematic clarity, Julia's deceptively simple celebrations of love and longing. Tracks such as the evocative "Italy" and exultant "Wake Up With You" cleverly contrast the soulful "Foolish Thing," "Missing Man," and "Roadside Angel," her musical valentine to the late Minnie Riperton. Concrete Loveis anchored to such pure pop delights as the sparkling "Butterfly," the engaging word play of "It's Another You Day," and the exquisite "Something Right."

Both Sides Now, from contemporary musical great, Joni Mitchell, features her sultry, jazzy, dramatic renditions of love songs from the 1920s to the 1970s.
