A CMOS image sensor is a device that converts light into electrical signals, which can be used for digital imaging applications. CMOS stands for complementary metal-oxide semiconductor, which is a type of technology that allows for low-power and high-performance integrated circuits A RISC-V IP SoC is a system-on-chip that integrates a RISC-V processor with other components,…
Electric vehicles (EVs) are key to reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector, but they face some challenges in terms of battery performance and efficiency. A new battery manufacturing project, called BatMan, aims to address these challenges by using lasers to alter the microstructure of battery electrode materials. BatMan, which stands for Battery Advanced Technology Manufacturing And Novelty, is a…
Every year, rail passengers and operators face the problem of ‘leaves on the line’, which cause delays, timetable changes and safety issues. But what exactly are these leaves and how do they turn into a slippery layer that reduces the friction between the train wheels and the rails? A team of engineers from the Universities…
Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming more popular and affordable, thanks to advances in battery technology and environmental awareness. However, one of the challenges that EV owners face is finding a convenient and reliable way to charge their vehicles at home or on the go. Most EVs come with a standard Level 1 charger, which plugs…
Driving is one of the most common and essential activities in our daily lives, but it also comes with many risks and challenges. Drivers need to constantly pay attention to the road conditions, traffic signs, navigation directions, and potential hazards, while also keeping their eyes on the windshield. However, sometimes the visibility is poor, the…
