The Bloodhound Supersonic Car is attempting to break the land speed record and achieve a speed of 1,000mph.
The Panasonic Visual Experience will be making a series of visits to major UK and other European cities in November 2012, Vigilance can reveal. In the UK, dates and locations in November are: Weybridge on the 20th, Stoke on the 22nd and Edinburgh on the 27th.
Vigilance learnt that whilst the focus of the VSS Road Show in the UK is on Panasonic’s latest visual system solutions including displays and projectors, PSCEU Communication Solutions, Pro-Camera Solutions and Computer Product Solutions are also joining the event and will include products such as HD video conferencing (HDVC), surveillance and CCTV, printers, scanners, Toughbook rugged mobile computers and business telephone systems.
In another development, Bloodhound Supersonic Car will be in Enfield, North London between the 8th and 9th of November, particularly at Enfield Centre, 73 Hertford Road, and also, at Tottenham Centre, EN3 5HA
Meanwhile, Enfield College has joined forces with Metaswitch in association with the BloodHound Supersonic Car Project Team and Barnet and Southgate College to promote STEM (Scientific, Technical, Engineering and Mathematics) subjects in North London.
The actual BloodHound supersonic car will be at Enfield Centre on Thursday and Friday, 8th and 9th November.
Local schools, businesses and community leaders and students have been invited to take part in a number of STEM activities with Bloodhound as the central focus. Such activities include braking systems for the car, as well as the maintenance and design issues to consider for a car which we gathered would travel at 1000mph in the dry hot conditions of the Kalahari Desert.
