Bernard Boser

When Bernard Boser was born on 9 February 1874, in Marquette, Marquette, Michigan, United States, his father, August E Boser, was 30 and his mother, Fredricka Hermann, was 24. He had at least 1 son and 7 daughters with Eulalie "Lillie Rosalie" Hujet. He lived in Wrightstown, Brown, Wisconsin, United States in 1880 and Ashwaubenon, Brown, Wisconsin, United States for about 20 years. He died on 17 July 1931, in Wisconsin, United States, at the age of 57, and was buried in Allouez Catholic Cemetery And Chapel Mausoleum, Green Bay, Brown, Wisconsin, United States.

Rejection turned out great for UC Berkeley’s top graduating senior

When it came to applying to colleges in her senior year at Berkeley High School, Anna Boser had her sights set on, well, anywhere but UC Berkeley. She was born at Alta Bates Hospital, excelled in the city’s public schools and could literally find her way around her hometown blindfolded.

Her older twin brothers begged her to leave the nest, as they had done. But the universe had other ideas.

“I really wanted to go to UCLA, but I got rejected. I got rejected from Stanford. I got rejected from USC. I got rejected from pretty much everywhere,” says Boser. “Berkeley was by far the best college that I got into, and even though I wanted to get away from my hometown, Cal ended up being exactly the right fit for me.”

Boser, 21, a major in statistics with a perfect 4.0 GPA, is this year’s winner of the University Medal, UC Berkeley’s highest honor for a graduating senior. The prize comes with $2,500.

Tactical Grade Gyroscope Performance in a Consumer Grade Process

GPS has transformed navigation but unfortunately does not work in indoor or dense urban environments. The alternative, inertial navigation, is either too inaccurate or too large, power hungry, and costly in all but niche applications.

Gyroscopes are responsible for direction in inertial sensors. Since even small angular offsets can rapidly add up to large location errors, significantly improved gyroscope accuracy is the key to precise indoor navigation.

I will describe a prototype gyroscope with tactical grade performance. Unlike state-of-the-art solutions, the device does not rely on exotic fabrication technology or trimming, and both its size and power dissipation are comparable to existing mobile solutions.

How is this possible? Sensors, in general, compare their input to a reference. A thermometer compares its input to a reference temperature and reports the ratio. Gyroscope sensors have a huge advantage: their input is rate, degrees per second, also known as frequency. F
