Northrup I Heliostat, 1978 This interest led to hiring Blake and 16 other ex-aerospace engineers, who set up a research center in Littleton, Colorado, near Denver.

There are older types of heliostat which do not use computers, including ones that are partly or wholly operated by hand or by clockwork, or are controlled by light-sensors.
43.
Light therapy can also consist of exposure to sunlight, either by spending more time outside or using a computer-controlled heliostat to reflect sunlight into the windows of a home or office.

We can't wait to go back in May to look through the Heliostat, a research-quality solar telescope, and see the Sun in all its blazing glory . ( MORE ) nn

Telescopes include two 20 " Planewave CDK telescopes on Software Bisque Taurus 500 encoder mounts, a 24 " Boller and Chivens Cassegrain reflectors, and a 10-inch aperture heliostat ( solar telescope ).

In 2014, SolarReserve acquired ownership from Rocketdyne of its intellectual property rights and patents specifically for molten salt technology for concentrated solar-thermal power and electricity storage, heliostat designs and collector field control systems.

A 46 MW eSolar power unit consists of sixteen heliostat fields and towers, a single steam turbine generator set, and a steam condenser, with a typical footprint of approximately 100 hectares ( 250 acres ).

In 1877 he moved to Rusthall House, Tunbridge Wells, fitted his polar heliostat to the roof of his house, and with a grating spectroscope and electrical equipment began his studies of the solar and metallic spectra.
49.
Because the Sun travels on a narrow fixed path across the sky, some solar telescopes are fixed in position ( and are sometimes buried underground ), with the only moving part being a heliostat to track the Sun.

BrightSource Energy received a $ 1.6 billion loan guarantee from the United States Department of Energy to build the project, which deploys 347, 000 heliostat mirrors focusing solar energy on boilers located on centralized solar power towers.
