News Quantum world-first: researchers can now tell how accurate two-qubit calculations in silicon really are
“After being the first team to create a two-qubit gate in silicon in 2015, UNSW Sydney engineers are breaking new ground again: they have measured the accuracy of silicon two-qubit operations for the first time – and their results confirm the …
“Today I would like to talk about how to make a remote control and monitoring system that can be used, for example, to control garage doors, lighting, heating, pressure control, temperature and many other parameters. But the main feature of …
“It was my first project with ESP8266 chip. I have just built a new greenhouse near my house and it was interesting for me what is going on there during a day? I mean how temperature and humidity changes? Is …
“As a musician and electrical engineering student, I love any project that intersects these two fields. I’ve seen some DIY audio visualizers (here, here, here, and here), but each had missed at least one of the two goals I …
