Project  Helmut

Helmut

“The safety device for your helmet. It registers when your helmet falls too heavy and warns you that the structure might be damaged. Helmets are subjected to drops and collisions during various activities, and the resulting internal damage might not …

Hexagonal Copper Disk Lattice Unleashes Spin Wave Control

“A collaborative group of researchers has potentially developed a means of controlling spin waves by creating a hexagonal pattern of copper disks on a magnetic insulator. The breakthrough is expected to lead to greater efficiency and miniaturization of communication devices …

High Power Three Channel LED Driver

“This project is a complete design of a high-power three-channel LED driver board, designed in KiCAD, and all the fabrication files Introduction I have been thinking about how to drive RGB LED patterns most simply. In my day-to-day research, I …

High-Quality Microwave Signals Generated From Tiny Photonic Chip

“Researchers create a compact, all-optical device with the lowest microwave noise ever achieved for an integrated chip. In a new Nature study, Columbia Engineering researchers have built a photonic chip that is able to produce high-quality, ultra-low-noise microwave signals using …

HKU Engineering team’s quantum sensing breakthrough opens new doors for monitoring dynamic processes in biological systems

“A collaborative project led by Professor Zhiqin Chu, Professor Can Li and Professor Ngai Wong, at the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering of the University of Hong Kong (HKU) has made a breakthrough in enhancing the speed and resolution …

How Could Laser-Driven Lightsails Remain Stable?

“It’s a long way to the nearest star, which means conventional rockets won’t get us there. The fuel requirements would make our ship prohibitively heavy. So an alternative is to travel light. Literally. Rather than carrying your fuel …

How to Make EM84 (6E2) Vacuum Tube Stereo VU Meter

“This VU meter is very sensitive, has great dynamics, and the response time is instantaneous. A VU meter, also known as a Volume Unit meter, is a device used to display the audio signal level in real-time. This time I …

Human Heart Simulation using Electronics

“A Simple working human heart model with electronics for visualization of arrhythmia. The main objective of this project is to teach students how the human heart functions. The heart has 4 chambers and 4 valves: Right Atrium, Left Atrium, Right …

Ili9341 pattern lock algorithm

“How to realize a pattern lock algorithm as in your smart phone for ili9341 touch screens and Arduino IDE Most people are familiar with pattern lock entries from their smart phone, e.g. for unlocking the phone. Such an unlocking …
