Building A Power Supply for My DIY CNC Machine

CNC, or Computer Numerical Control, is a revolutionary technology that has transformed the manufacturing industry. CNC machines are used in a wide range of applications, from precision machining to woodworking and metalworking, and have completely changed the way that many products are manufactured. CNC machines are essentially automated tools that...

Working With Z-Wave IoT Gateways

Z-Wave is a wireless communication protocol used for Internet of Things (IoT) devices. It is designed to facilitate communication between smart home devices, such as smart locks, thermostats, and light switches, and enable them to be controlled remotely. Z-Wave operates on a low-energy mesh network and uses a frequency band...

The Mercury Delay Line Memory

The mercury delay line was a method for representing binary zeros and ones as pulses of acoustic energy that relied on sound waves flowing through a tube of mercury. At the very least, in principle, the pulses could travel through the delay line unbrokenly if they were to capture the...

Magnetic-core Memory

Magnetic-core memory, also known as core memory or ferrite core memory, was one of the first types of random access memory (RAM) used in computers. It was developed in the late 1940s and remained in use until the 1970s. Core memory was important because it allowed computers to store data...

Miniature Untethered EEG Recorder Improves
Advanced Neuroscience Methodologies

The NAT-1 (Neural Activity Tracker) is a highly miniaturised wireless electronic recording system created in an industry-academic collaboration by the Universities of York, Aberdeen, and Cybula Ltd., with specific applications in rodent-based neuroscience. In preclinical research, rodent electroencephalography (EEG) is often used in acting animals. The difficulty in distinguishing EEG...
