“Digitally controlled 5.1 channel audio preamplifier system to increase the gain of the multi-channel PC sound cards. This project introduces a digitally controlled 5.1 channel audio preamplifier system. This amplifier is specifically designed to increase the gain of …

A new dimension in magnetism and superconductivity launched

“An international team of scientists from Austria and Germany has launched a new paradigm in magnetism and superconductivity, putting effects of curvature, topology, and 3D geometry into the spotlight of next-decade research. | New paper in “Advanced Materials”. Traditionally, the primary …

A new way to generate light using pre-existing defects in semiconductors

“SMART researchers demonstrate a practical way to make indium gallium nitride LEDs with considerably higher indium concentration. Researchers from the Low Energy Electronic Systems (LEES) interdisciplinary research group at the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART), MIT’s …

Aircraft can get higher and greener from doped fuels

“UBCO researchers cook up cleaner jet fuel with graphene nanomaterials The goal of creating a cleaner fuel for aircraft engines is creating a spark at UBC Okanagan. A team of researchers studying the burning rate of nanomaterials in liquid fuels …

Arduino Piano Tuner Helper

“Many electronic tuning devices are on the market. The cheaper ones are designed for specific instruments (such as guitar, violin). The more expensive ones often are called ‘orchestral tuner’, piano tuning included. For example, the Korg OT-120 (€ 62) or …

Autonomous Driving: Styrian Development Saves Millions in Test Kilometres

“TU Graz, JOANNEUM RESEARCH, AVL and Fraunhofer Austria have developed a method to validate test drives through highly realistic driving simulation studies and to substantially simplify the approval process for automated driving systems. Driving simulator tests are popular – for understandable …

Creating dynamic symmetry in quantum systems

“MIT researchers develop a new way to control and measure energy levels in a diamond crystal; could improve qubits in quantum computers. Physicists and engineers have long been interested in creating new forms of matter, those not typically found in …

Creating solar cells and glass from wood – or a billion tons of biowaste

“Researchers map out how biomass from plants could replace unrenewable resources in optical applications A digital, urbanised world consumes huge amounts of raw materials that could hardly be called environmentally friendly. One promising solution may be found in renewable raw …
