Biometrics is a branch of neuroscience that takes the measurement of emotions to a whole new level. It allows marketers to understand the additional dimensions of unconscious consumer responses in their day-to-day decision making, ultimately leading to stronger end results and a greater understanding of how brands and advertising are connecting with people in their everyday lives.
Black-winged Stilt (Himantopus himantopus)
Black-winged Stilt
Himantopus himantopus
Charadriiforme Order – Recurvirostridae Family
BIOMETRICS:
Length: 35-40 cm
Weight: 165-205 g
PHYSICAL DESCRPTION:
The Black-winged Stilt is a black and white shorebird, perched on very long and fine pink legs, giving the bird an elegant gait.
The adult male in breeding plumage has black and white plumage with all-black wings and upper back with greenish iridescence.
Underparts are white, sometimes with pale pinkish wash on the breast.
Head shows white face and forehead, and black top of the crown. Eyes are red. The long, thin bill is black and straight. Very long legs and feet are reddish-pink.
The female in breeding plumage is almost similar but more brownish on the upperparts with sometimes greyish wash on nape and rear neck.
In winter plumage, both are similar to the breeding female but duller, with variable grey wash on head and rear neck.
The juvenile is paler than adult, with washed grey-brown crown and rear neck. The brownish upperparts show narrow pale buff fringes, and legs are duller.
VOICE:
The Black-winged Stilt’s calls are a sharp “kek” and a barking “ke-yak”. Alarm call is a monotonous, high-pitched “kik-kik-kik-kik-kik-kik”.
They are noisy on their breeding areas.
HABITAT:
The Black-winged Stilt lives mainly in freshwater and saltwater marshes and mudflats, shallow lakes, coastal lagoons, flooded fields and rice fields.
RANGE:
The Black-winged Stilt has wide range. We can find it in Australia, Central and South America, Africa, Asia, parts of North America, Eurasia, Hawaii and Philippines.
BEHAVIOUR:
The Black-winged Stilt feeds in shallow water, wading and catching preys on or near the surface. But sometimes, it plunges the head under the surface to capture some aquatic invertebrate. It picks up its food from sand or water.
Its very long legs allow it to walk in deeper water than other waders. This bird rarely swims for food. The Black-winged Stilt is an active forager, and it can employ several methods to catch prey.
This species is well adapted to nocturnal vision, which allows them to feed on windy, moonless nights. Stilts walk quickly, with long strides, wading into water.
The Black-winged Stilt is a migratory bird, moving to the ocean coasts in winter. European birds winter in sub-Saharan Africa. They are often seen in flocks of 10 to 20 birds, and also in mixed flocks with other species of shorebirds.
The Black-winged Stilt nests in small colonies of 2 to 50 pairs, and mated pairs defend vigorously their nest site and territory. They may nest in mixed groups with avocets.
They are gregarious and may feed in large flocks of several thousands birds. When alarmed, the birds often bob their head.
FLIGHT:
The Black-winged Stilt has rapid direct flight, with steady wing-beats. Legs are projected behind the tail of up to 20 cm, and neck is slightly held.

PROTECTION / THREATS / STATUS:
The Black-winged Stilts are not globally threatened. They depend on predator control and protection of breeding habitats. Populations seem to be stable.
Hawaiian subspecies “knudseni” is endangered.

We have four subspecies:
Himantopus h. himantopus lives in Eurasia, India and Africa.
Himantopus h. knudseni lives only in Hawaï. It is very rare and endangered due to habitat loss.
Himantopus h. melanurus lives in South America.
Himantopus h. leucocephalus lives in Java and New Guinea, S Australia and New Zealand.
Himantopus h. leucocephalus
They differ in head and rear neck colour and pattern, but all are black and white.
The Black-necked Stilt, formerly Himantopus (h.) mexicanus living in North America, to northern South America, is now a full species.

REPRODUCTION:
The Black-winged Stilt’s nest is a shallow scrape on the ground. It is located on a mound of vegetation, in water on floating water weeds, or near water on the shore.
The female lays 4 eggs between mid-May and mid-June. Incubation lasts about 25 days, by both parents. Chicks are precocial and leave the nest very soon, remaining hidden in aquatic vegetation. They are fed by both parents. They fledge at about 4 weeks after hatching, and they become independent 2 to 4 weeks later.
They can breed at about one or two years of age.
DIET:
The Black-winged Stilt feeds on aquatic insects, worms, tadpoles, water bugs and beetles and fly larvae, molluscs and spiders. Occasionally, it will consume seeds.
PROTECTION / THREATS / STATUS:
The Black-winged Stilts are not globally threatened. They depend on predator control and protection of breeding habitats. Populations seem to be stable.
Hawaiian subspecies “knudseni” is endangered.
ahah rl life is all around us isnt it?
I had to take biometric pics for my new id and so i decided dania shld give it a try too ( after all she already travelled from the us to come here )

Dr. Robert Sonnenburg (right) takes biometric readings on a fellow aquanaut, possibly Fred Johler.
This photograph was likely taken by Jay D. Skidmore, a Navy photographer and aquanaut on Sealab II’s Team 1.
The Sealab II project demonstrated the possibilities of saturation diving, a new approach to undersea work that kept divers underwater for days or weeks at a time. Saturation divers enjoyed unprecedented lengths of work time in exchange for only one decompression period.
In July 1964, four aquanauts spent four days living underwater in the first Sealab experiment — the first real-life test of saturation diving. The following year, the Navy drastically expanded the scale of testing with Sealab II. Beginning August 28, 1965, three teams of ten divers spent 15 days each living and working 205 feet underwater off LaJolla, California. They tested underwater tools, raised a sunken fighter jet, conducted geological studies, set up a weather station, and worked with a dolphin named Tuffy trained to carry tools and messages between the habitat and the surface.
For their efforts, the Sealab II team was awarded the Navy Unit Commendation — the first time it was given to a mixed military and civilian scientific team.

NEC recently participated in the Federal Identity Forum & Exposition (FedID 17), which is the U.S. federal government’s primary outreach and collaboration-building event with the worldwide identity community. NEC showcased its world-class biometrics solutions for federal government attendees. In addition, Benji Hutchinson, Senior Director of Federal Operations, and Matthew Pruitt, Senior Solution Architect, both spoke at the event.
Stepper motor A Stepper Motor or a step motor is a brushless, synchronous motor which divides a full rotation into a number of steps. Unlike a brushless DC motor which rotates continuously when a fixed DC voltage is applied to it, a step motor rotates in discrete step angles. The Stepper Motors therefore are manufactured with steps per revolution of 12, 24, 72, 144, 180, and 200, resulting in stepping angles of 30, 15, 5, 2.5, 2, and 1.8 degrees per step. The stepper motor can be controlled with or without feedback.
