ROLE OF VISION PROCESSING WITH ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS IN AUTONOMOUS DRIVING

ROLE OF VISION PROCESSING WITH ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS IN AUTONOMOUS DRIVING

In next 10 years, the automotive industry will bring more change than we have seen in the last 50, due to technological advancement. One of the largest changes will be the move to autonomous vehicles, usually known as the self-driving car. Scientists from many universities are striving to implement vision processing with the artificial neural network to […]

PICKIT 3 MINI

PICKIT 3 MINI

Previously, I made a Pickit 3 clone – (See previous Blog Post). It works well, but I have often wondered just how little of its circuitry was needed to program and debug the boards I make. For instance – I primarily use the newer 3.3V PIC32 processors, so I really don’t need the ability to

RESEARCHERS DEVELOP LONG RANGE BACKSCATTER SENSORS THAT CONSUME ALMOST NO POWER

RESEARCHERS DEVELOP LONG RANGE BACKSCATTER SENSORS THAT CONSUME ALMOST NO POWER

Researchers at the University of Washington developed a new backscatter sensors that can operate over long ranges with very little power. The researchers demonstrated for the first time that the device runs on almost zero power and can transmit data across distances of up to 2.8 kilometers. Backscatter communication works by emitting a radio signal and then monitoring the reflections

TERAHERTZ ELECTRONICS – WAY TO BRIDGE THE LARGELY UNTAPPED REGION BETWEEN 100GHZ AND 10THZ

TERAHERTZ ELECTRONICS – WAY TO BRIDGE THE LARGELY-UNTAPPED REGION BETWEEN 100GHZ AND 10THZ

The terahertz (THz) region, which is based on 1THz frequency, separates electronics from photonics and has been difficult to access for ages. Semiconductor electronics cannot handle frequencies equal to or greater than 100GHz due to various transport-time related limitations. In other hand, photonics devices fail to work below 10THz as photon’s energy significantly drops to thermal energy. Terahertz

NEW ULTRATHIN SEMICONDUCTORS CAN MAKE MORE EFFICIENT AND TEN TIMES SMALLER TRANSISTORS THAN SILICON

NEW ULTRATHIN SEMICONDUCTORS CAN MAKE MORE EFFICIENT AND TEN TIMES SMALLER TRANSISTORS THAN SILICON

The researchers at Stanford University have discovered two ultrathin semiconductors – hafnium diselenide and zirconium diselenide. They share or even exceed some of the very important characteristics of silicon. Silicon has a great property of forming “rust” or silicon dioxide (SiO2) by reacting with oxygen. As the SiO2 acts as an insulator, chip manufacturers implement this property to isolate their circuits on
