Webb Detects Extremely Small Main Belt Asteroid

“NASA’s newest astrophysics observatory wasn’t designed to look for small objects in our solar system, but scientists using its Mid-Infrared Instrument may have done just that. An asteroid roughly the size of Rome’s Colosseum – between 300 to …

3D Printed Servo Motor

“Most hobby servos are limited to less than 360 of rotation. Let’s fix that! In this build, I’ll show you how to make a 3D-printed servo motor. Like traditional servos, this servo has position feedback. Unlike a traditional …

A machine that learns to learn

“A neural network that can learn its own learning algorithm opens the door to self-improving artificial intelligence. By replacing parts of the conventional nodes in a neural network (NN) with tiny NNs, a research team from KAUST and the Swiss …

A neuro-chip to manage brain disorders

“EPFL researchers have combined low-power chip design, machine learning algorithms, and soft implantable electrodes to produce a neural interface that can identify and suppress symptoms of various neurological disorders. Mahsa Shoaran of the Integrated Neurotechnologies Laboratory in the School of …

A new ATLAS for the high-luminosity era

“Stefan Guindon, Christian Ohm and Caterina Vernieri describe the major ‘Phase II’ upgrades taking place to prepare the ATLAS detector for the High-Luminosity LHC. The discovery of the Higgs boson at the LHC in 2012 changed the landscape of high-energy …

ACCM Shields v1 & v2 for Arduino UNO

“AC Digital Clamp and Meter This project reflects the second stage of work with the Prototype of Current Clamp with accounting and triggering capabilities. ACCM Concepts Sinusoidal currents inside electric cables produce a variable and also sinusoidal electromagnetic field. Thanks …

An illuminated water droplet creates an ‘optical atom’

“Shining light on a water droplet creates effects analogous to what happens in an atom. This can help us understand how atoms work, write researchers from the University of Gothenburg in a new journal article. If you whisper by the …

Analogue solution offers answers to some of quantum physics’ biggest questions

“A new type of analogue computer developed by researchers at UCD and Stanford University could solve some of the most exciting unanswered questions in quantum physics. In new research published in Nature Physics, the collaborating scientists detailed how this ‘quantum …

Astronomers observe light bending around an isolated white dwarf

“Astronomers have directly measured the mass of a dead star using an effect known as gravitational microlensing, first predicted by Einstein in his General Theory of Relativity, and first observed by two Cambridge astronomers 100 years ago. The international team …

Bootloader In STM32

“Getting to understand how bootloader works and learn how to write two applications in single STM32 microcontroller Bootloader Implementation in STM32 MCU Here I have explained how to write our custom bootloader in STM32. A bootloader is an application whose …
