Researchers Develop New Hybrid Solar Panel That Can Generate Power From Rain Too

Electronics News Updates / By Ibrar Ayyub

The researchers at Soochow University in China, have published a paper on the hybrid device that is able to harness the power of sun and rain using a hybrid panel. By attaching a transparent nanogenerator to a silicon solar cell, researchers have designed a device that harvests solar energy in sunny conditions and the mechanical energy of falling raindrops in rainy conditions. The dual

BCD TO I2C: TURNING A NIXIE COUNTER INTO WHATEVER YOU WANT IT TO BE

Arduino News / By Muhammad Bilal

Whenever a project calls for displaying numbers, a 7-segment display is the classic and straightforward choice. However, if you’re more into a rustic, retro, almost mystical, and steampunky look and feel, it’s hard to beat the warm, orange glow of a Nixie tube. Once doomed as obsolete technology of yesteryear, they have since reclaimed their

SELF-PLAYING WHISTLE WHILE YOU WORK FROM HOME

Arduino News / By Muhammad Bilal

In ridiculous times, it can help to play ridiculous instruments such as the slide whistle to keep your bristles in check. But since spittle is more than a little bit dangerous these days, it pays to come up with alternative ways to play away the days during lockdown life. Thanks to some clever Arduino-driven automation, [Gurpreet]
