Vehicular sensor systems are provided. The vehicular sensor systems includes a support, first, second, and third sensors, and a support actuator. The first sensor is coupled to the support and configured to rotate about a first sensor axis. The first sensor has a first field of detection with a first central axis. The second sensor is coupled to the support and configured to rotate about a second sensor axis. The second sensor has a second field of detection with a second central axis. The third sensor is coupled to the support and configured to rotate about a third sensor axis. The third sensor has a third field of detection with a third central axis. The support actuator is coupled to the support and configured to rotate the support about a support axis. The first, second, and third central axes are substantially within a plane.

Vehicular linear sensor system

In a system for housing electronics cards, methods and systems for cooling the electronics cards are presented. Each electronics card preferably contains heat-producing electronics and a heat sink, and is preferably placed within a card guide of the chassis and secured into position with a clamping device. At least one of the heat sink, the card guide, the clamping device, and a cold wall of the chassis are used to facilitate the conduction cooling of the heat-producing electronics. Furthermore, a clamping device may rigidly secure a card into position, thus reducing the impact of vibrations (including shock) on the card. Additionally, an air flow further cools the electronics cards, the card guides, and/or the cold wall.
