The Power Of Sensors In Transmission Systems


I have always had a passion for cars. As a child, I used to spend hours playing with toy cars and imagining all sorts of incredible adventures. But as I got older, my love affair with cars only grew stronger. I became fascinated by the mechanics of these amazing machines and all the different parts that come together to make them run. And one of the parts that always intrigued me the most were ... » read more

Fabricating Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes On Plastic Film


A new technical paper titled "Direct formation of carbon nanotube wiring with controlled electrical resistance on plastic films" was published by researchers at Tokyo University of Science. The paper states, "we have developed a simple method to fabricate multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) wiring on a plastic film at room temperature under atmosphere pressure. By irradiating a MWNT thin fil... » read more

Simulating Reality: The Importance Of Synthetic Data In AI/ML Systems For Radar Applications


Artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) are driving the development of next-generation radar perception. However, these AI/ML-based perception models require enough data to learn patterns and relationships to make accurate predictions on new, unseen data and scenarios. In the field of radar applications, the data used to train these models is often collected from real-world meas... » read more

Deconstructing Innovations In IoT Sensors: New Combinations


In 1883, Professor Warren Seymour Johnson (1847-1911) received his first patent for an electric tele-thermoscope, a device that could automatically control and regulate room temperature. Globally, this energy-efficient and comfortable thermostat system has been widely used in large buildings. To market his system, Johnson established the Johnson Electric Service Company, which eventually became... » read more
