Make a $6 Tiny Portable Weather Station that Transmits Live Data Wherever You Are

“Ask your iPhone for weather conditions and it’ll display data from a sensor somewhere nearby - often at the local airport - which might be miles away from your current location. And at home, you may have IoT sensors that tell …

MXE11: run UNIX on a microcontroller

“Looking for an architecture that can be well-emulated with modern microcontrollers and for which there is enough tools and software there, I came across the PDP11. The first approaches have already been made: https://dave.cheney.net/tag/pdp11 but …

New High-Precision Instrument Enables Rapid Measurements of Protein Crystals

“A team of scientists and engineers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a new scientific instrument that enables ultra-precise and high-speed characterization of protein crystals at the National Synchrotron Light Source II …

Next-Gen Robotic Systems to Be Enabled by Jetson Xavier Computer and Isaac Robotics Software

“NVIDIA today announced the availability of NVIDIA® Isaac™, a new platform to power the next generation of autonomous machines, bringing artificial intelligence capabilities to robots for manufacturing, logistics, agriculture, construction and many other industries.

NIST Atomic Clock Comparison Confirms Key Assumptions of ‘Einstein’s Elevator’

“By comparing different types of remote atomic clocks, physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have performed the most accurate test ever of a key principle underlying Albert Einstein’s famous theory of general relativity, which describes …

Novel Insulators with Conducting Edges

“Physicists at UZH are researching a new class of materials: Higher-order topological insulators. The edges of these crystalline solids conduct electric current without dissipation, while the rest of the crystal remains insulating. This could be useful for applications in semiconductor …

ParticleSwitch

“Battery life has become a key competing feature between mobiles, laptops, wearable devices, etc. Over charging a battery leads to an effect called the “battery-effect”, where due to charging a devices battery past it’s power limit leads to decrease …
