Linear Scale ТЕА5767 FM Radio on ili9341 TFT Display

“Simple FM Radio with a beautiful retro look linear scale. This time I will present you how to make a simple FM Radio with a beautiful retro look linear scale. The idea for the project was taken from the Volos …

MIT engineers grow “perfect” atom-thin materials on industrial silicon wafers

“Their technique could allow chip manufacturers to produce next-generation transistors based on materials other than silicon. True to Moore’s Law, the number of transistors on a microchip has doubled every year since the 1960s. But this trajectory is predicted …

Multi-layered ‘space skin’ can help future satellites and spacecraft harvest energy

“A ‘space skin’ could help protect spacecraft and satellites from harsh solar radiation while also harvesting energy for future use in the craft’s mission, according to a study from the University of Surrey and Airbus Defence and Space. The …

Multimaterial 3D printing with a twist

“Rotational multimaterial printing of helical filaments for soft robotics and structural composites Materials in nature are rarely straight. In our bodies, proteins assemble into helical filaments which allow our muscles to contract. Plants change shape because cellulose fibers are arranged …

Nanoparticles make it easier to turn light into solvated electrons

“Illuminating study from Rice, UT, Stanford advances ‘green’ reducing agents There are many ways to initiate chemical reactions in liquids, but placing free electrons directly into water, ammonia and other liquid solutions is especially attractive for green chemistry because solvated …

NASA Issues Award for Greener, More Fuel-Efficient Airliner of Future

“NASA announced Wednesday it has issued an award to The Boeing Company for the agency’s Sustainable Flight Demonstrator project, which seeks to inform a potential new generation of green single-aisle airliners. Under a Funded Space Act Agreement, Boeing will …

Nearly 50-meter Laser Experiment Sets Record in Campus Hallway

“It’s not at every university that laser pulses powerful enough to burn paper and skin are sent blazing down a hallway. But that’s what happened in UMD’s Energy Research Facility, an unremarkable looking building on the northeast …

New Algorithm Closes Quantum Supremacy Window

“Random circuit sampling, a popular technique for showing the power of quantum computers, doesn’t scale up if errors go unchecked. In what specific cases do quantum computers surpass their classical counterparts? That’s a hard question to answer, in …

New All-in-One Hybrid Power Drive Module Solution from Microchip is Designed for Electric Aviation Applications to Reduce Development Time and Weight

“The highly integrated and configurable three-phase power module is the first variant of the new family and can be customized using silicon carbide or silicon, reducing power solution size and weight for electric aircraft Aircraft manufacturers designing More Electric Aircraft …

New Small Laser Device Can Help Detect Signs of Life on Other Planets

“UMD-led team developed a miniaturized analyzer that may revolutionize how astrobiology discoveries are made on faraway moons and planets. As space missions delve deeper into the outer solar system, the need for more compact, resource-conserving and accurate analytical tools …
