We’re used to seeing all manner of seven-segment displays, be they mechanical, electronic, or something in between. But what all these displays have in common is that they’re, you know, displays. Using them as inputs would just be crazy talk, right? Perhaps, but we like where [Dave Ehnebuske] is going with “InSlide,” the seven-segment input device. […]
THE SEVEN-SEGMENT DISPLAY THAT’S ALSO AN INPUT DEVICE Continue Reading
Smaller is better when it comes to microchips, researchers said, and by using 3D components on a standardized 2D microchip manufacturing platform, developers can use up to 100 times less chip space. A team of engineers has boosted the performance of its previously developed 3D inductor technology by adding as much as three orders of
RESEARCHERS EXPAND MICROCHIP CAPABILITY WITH NEW 3D INDUCTOR TECHNOLOGY Continue Reading
Thousands of lives are being lost every year due to IEDs (improvise explosive devices). IEDs were responsible for approximately 63% of coalition deaths in Iraq. ABSTRACT Mobile Explosive Containment Vessels (MECV) referred to as Total Containment Vessels (TCV) are fully enclosed vessels used to absorb the explosion forces the enclosure is spherical and made of
The satellite positioner stores the position of the satellites in memory and allows you to move the dish to the desired satellite when you change the satellite channel. The advantage of this device is the possibility of controlling and setting the positioner via Wi-Fi. Description With the advancement of smart home appliances and the increasing
