Experimenting with 3D Lidar Modelling on Latest iPhones (3-5) (PDF 408KB)     
The iPhone 12 Pro models have a lidar sensor that can be used to build 3D models of objects and rooms. Jari Arkko describes how he has used this facility for low-cost cave surveying in 3D. Although still an experimental technique, it has been used with impressive results in Lummelunda Cave, Gotland, Sweden.
 
Overview of Methods for Modelling Radio Propagation along Cave Passages (6-8) (PDF 455KB)     
Mike Bedford presents a summary of the main methods of modelling radio propagation along cave passages, with a view to planning a system and predicting performance.
 
Building Blocks (9) (PDF 312KB)     
Options for sourcing a printed circuit board. By Tony Haigh.
 
A Simple Class-D Single-Sideband Modulator (10-13) (PDF 657KB)     
David Gibson describes how the output pulses from two class-D double-sideband modulators using carrier-frequency PWM (CF-PWM) can be interleaved to create a class-D single-sideband modulation. The method, assumed to be novel, is simple enough to be implemented on a standard micro-controller, which means that it is more accessible to hobbyist designers than a DSP implementation.
 
We Hear (14) (PDF 390KB)     
Roundup of news and events: Mike Bedford brings us the latest to impact the world of cave radio and electronics. Walking Robot for Cave Exploration, Introducing PlasticArm for IOT and Beyond, Move Over Li-ion Here Comes Al-ion.
 
Letters to the Editor (15) (PDF 313KB)     
Rugged Cases, Luc Le Blanc; The Next CREG Field Meeting, Rob Gill.
 
Web Watch (15)  For download see previous item
Peter Ludwig considers improved batteries, exciting night-vision developments, ultrasonic hearing with spatial awareness and using AI drones to peer through leafy canopies.
 
Data Protocol and Coding Examples for the British Cave Science Centre (16-20) (PDF 452KB)     
The British Cave Science Centre (BCSC) at Poole’s Cavern in Derbyshire has been fitted with sensors and data loggers in support of a number of cave science projects. The sensors transmit their data to the Internet via a broadband telephone connection. Two data protocols are used, essentially a ‘push’ and a ‘pull’ operation, which David Gibson describes as ‘Source-As-Browser’ and ‘Source-As-Server’. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages, which are explained in this article, that also gives examples of the code needed to handle the operations.
 
Presenting an Easy-to-Build Arduino-based Data Logger for Monitoring Water Levels (21-24) (PDF 1.1MB)     
Brendan Hall describes a low-cost Arduino cave data logging device, for tracking in-cave water levels, and presents the results of his initial trials that were carried out in Sleets Gill Cave. Practical information is provided to allow others to build the data logger.
