Being able to accurately measure semiconductor properties of materials in small volumes helps engineers determine the range of applications for which these…
The infrared cameras from the Optris Compact Line, the Xi 80 and Xi 400, have been supplemented with new industrial accessories for use in rough conditions.
But those models lack personalized electronic user interfaces like those found in costly, state-of-the-art prosthetics.
A magic word is making the rounds: “Urban Mining”. This new form of mining recovers secondary raw materials from buildings, infrastructure or products. If put…
The laser is based on a fundamental principle in physics, the (L)ight (A)mplification by (S)timulated (E)mission of (R)adiation. This concept theoretically…
