Seems this can be true. Faiz Rahman who is a nano electronics researcher at Glazgow university states that low-energy bright LED light Bulbs are almost here. As matter of fact LEDs are very energy efficient, but fact is that about 70% of electrical energy is converted to light, and only about 20% of it getting [...]

Even wonder to turn your home into outer space colonization?
Make your dream come alive and make yourself a Space Explorer, Taurus 2.
Before that, you need to prepare some components:

Four wheels
Eight servos
Three proximity IRs
A CMU cam

For [...]

Non invasive surgery is getting more common and popular because of many reasons like less scars, less risk to patients life, faster recovery. All technologies needed are here and there is no reason not to use it.

Probably appendix surgery is one of most frequent operation. Is is quite simple and seems obvious method - surgeon [...]

The fuel matter has turned into a global alert, where all of the countries around the world need to face the insane fuel price each day, either they like it or not.

Many energy reproductive scientists try to find and exploits any kind of alternative energy that will be the best replacement for the fossil fuel. [...]

Embedded systems that are dealing with DAC require a good voltage references. Despite all voltage references have their nominal values there are specific tolerances that indicates how much values can vary from nominal value. References as a rule are semiconductors that characteristics are effected by temperature.

For instance if we decide to use a 2.5V voltage [...]

Guys from Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories have released 2nd version of their Peggy LED display kit. It is a 25×25 LED display board which is capable to display various LED effects, output text and even animation with individual LED addressing.

This is quite smart construction allowing to drive any number of LEDs (from one to [...]

Probably this programmer cable can be found on every AVR fan website. It very simple and easy to build. You just need few passive components that can be packed inside LPT connector. From my perspective I wouldn’t recommend using this one programmer if you are more serious in microcontroller projects, because it has poor computer [...]

It’s been ten years when Cornell University Computer Engineering students were publishing their final embedded projects. I always enjoy browsing over that big list of complete projects. You can get some crazy ideas here but also some good lessons that could be helpful while building your own projects.

This PCB drill is made of wood and looks really cool. Wouldn’t mind to have one on my table. Design is very unique - it uses various custom made parts, motors from old printers and VCR’s. Author even simulated all design code on a Labcenter’s Proteus VSM.
