  2. Pyrotechnic initiator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrotechnic_initiator

    This mixture is used in the NASA Standard Initiator, [2] which is used to ignite various pyrotechnic systems, including the NASA standard detonator. [3] It yields rapid pressure rise, generates little gas, emits hot particles when ignited, is thermally stable, has long shelf life, and is stable under vacuum. It is sensitive to static electricity.

    A detonator is a device used to trigger an explosive.

  4. NASA Standard Initiator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NASA_Standard_Initiator

    The NASA Standard Initiator (NSI) is a pyrotechnic device used to set off other pyrotechnic devices. It is the central multi-purpose component of a modular system of detonating cords , pyrotechnics and various other explosive charges with many different uses.

  5. Detonator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detonator

    A detonator is a device used to make an explosive or explosive device explode. [1] Detonators come in a variety of types, depending on how they are initiated (chemically, mechanically, or electrically) and details of their inner working, which often involve several stages.

  6. Slapper detonator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slapper_detonator

    (A) Slapper detonator's pellet or flyer impacts a wider area of surface on the explosive output charge, and even though energy is lost to the sides of the area impacted, a cone of explosive is efficiently compressed. (B) EBW detonators only initiate a single point, and energy is lost in all directions, making the energy transfer less efficient.

  7. Exploding-bridgewire detonator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploding-bridgewire_detonator

    The exploding-bridgewire detonator (EBW, also known as exploding wire detonator) is a type of detonator used to initiate the detonation reaction in explosive materials, similar to a blasting cap because it is fired using an electric current. EBWs use a different physical mechanism than blasting caps, using more electricity delivered much more ...

    Dimensional Drift is Yoru’s ultimate, where he is able to travel on the map undetected for 9 seconds. He will only be revealed if he gets too close to an enemy, and his vision is also limited.

  9. Shock tube detonator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_tube_detonator

    A shock tube detonator is a non-electric explosive fuze or initiator in the form of small-diameter hollow plastic tubing used to transport an initiating signal to an explosive by means of a shock wave (also known as a percussive wave) traveling the length of the tube. [1] Shock tube is used to convey a detonation signal to a detonator. Shock ...
