New U S Parachute With Its Own Brain
A 1940s era report describes a new parachute design for high altitude use aboard bombers and reconnaissance aircraft. It features an "apparent brain" system to control opening, enabling safer deployment at altitudes up to 40 000 feet. The system aims to improve reliability when pilots eject or escape, reducing reliance on manual sequences and offering automatic canopy deployment if misaligned. The article notes expected use aboard high performance aircraft and acknowledges dangers of opening too early or late.
