New graphene-based device is first step toward ultrasensitive biosensors

“Researchers in the University of Minnesota College of Science and Engineering have developed a unique new device using the wonder material graphene that provides the first step toward ultrasensitive biosensors to detect diseases at the molecular level with near perfect …

Non Contact Voltage Detector

“In this Instructable I’ll show you how you can build a non contact voltage detector for checking of live power wires. A transistor is a device that can be used in two basic operations, as an electronic switch or …

Novel technology aims to improve lithium metal battery life, safety

“Rechargeable lithium metal batteries with increased energy density, performance, and safety may be possible with a newly-developed, solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI), according to Penn State researchers. As the demand for higher-energy-density lithium metal batteries increases — for electric vehicles, smartphones, and drones …

OpenSCAD Hinged Box generator and toolkit

“This is an OpenSCAD script for generating a two peice hinged box, with rounded corners, lid, interlocking rims, snap fit, magnet, or screw closures, and easy places for adding cutouts or additions to any face. All features are optional and …

Parking Radar Sensor

“Use three HC-SR04 ultrasound sensors and two battery displays to show you how close the obstacles are and from which side. Hi, this project is about a DIY Parking Radar Sensor, it’s very easy to make, it’s …

Portal 2 Turret - Master Turret Control

“This project is an extension or remix of my original Portal Turret on Instructables (Portal-2-Turret-Gun). It can also be used as a cheap controller to control anything that uses the nRF24L01 radio chip. The LCD screen is particularly useful when …

Quantum physicists succeed in controlling energy losses and shifts

“Achievement can be applied to speed up quantum computers and design new quantum technological devices Quantum computers need to preserve quantum information for a long time to be able to crack important problems faster than a normal computer. Energy losses …

Project  Quest Smith

Quest Smith

“Quest Smith is a Raspberry Pi Zero-driven thermal printing text-based game. In each level, it gives you options to choose so every game is different than the other one depending on your choices. After I saw one in the Game …

RC522 and PN532 RFID Basics

“Some time ago I bought three different RFID modules for experimenting. In a previous project I detailed how to use a simple 125-kHz module to do a basic security function. Modules like that use read-only tags so the process is …
