The resistors in a potential divider can have fixed values, or one may be a variable component like an LDR (light dependent resistor) or a thermistor. These variable resistors allow the output ...

[Leo Goldstien] recently got in touch to let us know about a fascinating update he posted on the Hackaday.io page for ManiPylator — his 3D printed Six degrees of freedom, or 6DOF robotic arm.

To optimize photosynthesis, cyanobacteria move toward or away from a light source by a process known as phototaxis. Phototactic movement of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC6803 is a ...

The outputs of both comparators are applied to transistor T1 through diodes D1 and D2 and pull-up resistor R8, which function as an AND gate. This conducts the transistor T1 to switch on the light ...

Abstract: We propose and demonstrate a design of an interactive green street facility using light dependent sensors and actuators for enhancing the social cohesion of people. We show that electronics ...

Like most German luxury brands, BMWs aren't the cheapest to own.The X5 SUV in particular racks up quite a cost over time. BMW's first-ever SUV launched in 1999 after they acquired the Rover Group ...

Here we show that RGR is involved in the formation of 11-cis-retinal in mice and functions in a light-dependent pathway of the rod visual cycle. Mutations in the human gene encoding RGR are ...

Engineers are always in search of new electrical project ideas, and finding meaningful projects makes that search worthwhile. Listed below are the latest electrical projects for engineering students.

Find more information on the Altmetric Attention Score and how the score is calculated. The blue-light photoreceptor phototropin plays a crucial role in optimizing photosynthesis in plants. In the two ...

An Arduino-based Laser Theft Detection System is a simple yet effective security project designed to detect unauthorized access or movement in a restricted area using a laser and a light-dependent ...
