“Scientists have discovered yet another marker on the trail toward the putative Planet Nine. That clue is 2015 TG387, a newfound object in the far outer solar system, way beyond Pluto. The orbit of 2015 TG387 shares peculiarities with those …
“Physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have used common electronics to build a laser that pulses 100 times more often than conventional ultrafast lasers. The advance could extend the benefits of ultrafast science to new applications …
“Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed a technology where two robots can work in unison to 3D-print a concrete structure. This method of concurrent 3D-printing, known as swarm printing, paves the way for a team of …
“A system to trigger a Canon DSLR camera when there is motion in front of it. Uses a PIR, opto-isolator, and not much else! If you have a Canon DSLR (may work with others—I’ve tested it with a …
“There are times you find yourself looking for a relatively high voltage (100V to 200V often in my case) but low current DC power supply. I have zener diodes that are higher than 30V, which makes the lab supply useless …
“In this Instructable I will describe how to build a pool and spa controller that controls a pump motor, multiple electric valve actuators, lights, a cleaner, air blower, and heater. It also measures the water and air temperatures. I built …
“Hello! The basic idea is that if a power supply with a large power reserve, then there is no need for constant rotation of the fan (just like it was done in the CPU fan). Therefore, if it is reliable …
“Scientists discovered that single atoms of platinum can break the bond between carbon and fluorine, one of the strongest known chemical bonds An international team of scientists including researchers at Yale University and the U.S. Department of Energy’s …
“Do you have a tank whose fluid level you want to keep track of? Even if not, you may have an idea for an IoT project, or a solar-powered project, or a Particle Photon project. This Instructable includes many useful …
“The special properties of ‘topological materials’ typically occur at their surface. These materials, for example insulators that do conduct current at their surface, are expected to play a major role in future quantum computers. Scientists of the University of Twente …
