Similar systems are being installed at other Texaco sites. Lear Astronics (Santa Monica and Ontario, Calif.) is combining neural networks with virtual reality to enhance its Autonomous Landing Guidance (ALG) system. Lear Astronics is using a neural network-based massively parallel coprocessor for real-time image processing in the ALG system, which enables commercial and military aircraft pilots to land in foggy conditions. Researchers at Georgia Tech (Atlanta, Ga.) have created intelligent agent software called the Technology Opportunities Analysis Knowbot (TOAK) that provides profiles of the latest technological trends and opportunities. TOAK navigates through multiple networks and across diverse computer systems to perform specific search tasks for the user.
