At the extreme: Breaking the ice mold

“New research involving Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) scientists shows that water can remain liquid in a metastable state when transitioning from liquid to a dense form of ice at higher pressures than previously measured. Water at extreme conditions has …

Automatic Volume Adjuster for LOUD MOVIE MUSIC

“In this project I will solve one of the biggest problems I have with modern movies. The problem is that the conversation volume is way too low in comparison to the music volume. That is why I combined an Arduino …

Beam diagnostics for future laser wakefield accelerators

“For decades, particle accelerators have been getting bigger and bigger. In the meantime, ring accelerators with circumferences of many kilometres have reached a practical limit. Linear accelerators in the GHz range also require very long construction lengths. For some years …

Connecting the Dots Between Material Properties and Qubit Performance

“Brookhaven Lab and Princeton scientists team up to identify sources of loss of quantum information at the atomic scale. Engineers and materials scientists studying superconducting quantum information bits (qubits)—a leading quantum computing material platform based on the frictionless flow …

Cracking Open Strong Field Quantum Electrodynamics

“Berkeley Lab’s researchers’ unique capabilities aided international effort to probe fundamental questions in physics A newly published theoretical and computer modeling study suggests that the world’s most powerful lasers might finally crack the elusive physics behind some of …

Digital Clock with IR Remote Control using Arduino Nano

“Digital Clock With Hour/Minute/Second/ Temperature display and features Alarm/snooze/Hour Chime with a full function IR remote Control. I have earlier published a Digital Clock project, and that was my first project on Arduino. That project has …

DIY Smart Window Blinds To Home Assistant

“For a long time I’ve been wishing for automatic window blinds for my living room. Those three window blinds are always closed and opened at the same time so it’s “too much work” (yes, laziness is the most …

Engineers figured out how to cook 3D-printed chicken with lasers

“Who hasn’t dreamt of coming home after a long day and simply pressing a few buttons to get a hot, home-cooked 3D-printed meal, courtesy of one’s digital personal chef? It might make microwaves and conventional frozen TV dinners …

First RISC-V computer chip lands at the European Processor Initiative

“The European Processor Initiative (EPI) has run the successful first test of its RISC-V-based European Processor Accelerator (EPAC), touting it as the initial step towards homegrown supercomputing hardware. EPI, launched back in 2018, aims to increase the independence of …

From recycling to upcycling: A smarter way of dealing with plastic

“Researchers have developed a clean and cost-effective way to upcycle used plastic, transforming it into valuable nanomaterials and high-quality fuel. Key points - New tech produces carbon nanotubes and clean liquid fuel from used plastic - Smart solution for upcycling plastic and …
