The history of the Compass is too old. It is said to be invented in 206 BC as a device and was used by the Chinese Han Dynasty. From that time, the Compass was used for military purposes and maritime navigation. However, we could not come out from the use of this ancient device. W...
An Exploratory Study to Measure Excessive Involvement in Multitasking Interaction with Smart Devices This study developed a scale measuring excessive involvement in multitasking interaction with smart devices. An online questionnaire was designed and surveyed in a sample of 380 respondents. The sample was ...
We will quote the department of Weights and Measures of Santa Clara County18in the Silicon Valley. Its “mission is to protect the buyer and seller in all monetary transactions that use weight, measure, or count.” A few of the devices that they inspect are “gasoline pumps, scales, and ...
“A Zonai device that automatically heads for monsters. It’s believed to have been used by the Zonai as a security measure.” This Cart is useful for automatically navigating towards hostile creatures. What is done to the target is another matter entirely. Hover Stone “A Zonai device that...
Device performances were measured both in compression and bending and, after placing it on a human wrist, it was possible to measure the artery pulse. Collagen is the protein involved in the central structural systems of mammalians and is usually organized in bundles to offer mechanical resistance...
To measure any integral parameter, the antenna under test is rotated to cover all different angles of arrival at the antenna. The integral parameters described above are then calculated from the information given in each angular direction (Figure 6). Figure 6 Open in figure viewerPowerPoint ...
such structures," said Polycarpou. "We now have evidence to show that they do not. So, if one is using smart socks to measure how pressure is distributed during gait, our results suggest that the miniature pressure sensors will still work remarkably well even if they are slightly defective....
The IBM team also demonstrated that this type of architecture could be used to measure enzymatic reactions, with an eye to detecting various diseases (genetic illnesses, for example). It also showed a proof-of-concept for a method of DNA amplification, a reaction used to produce copies of a...
is that the light won't stay confined on the nanoscale. "The photons leak out quickly, so there has to be a way to keep them in place so that there is enough time for them to perform functions. It is also necessary to make small light sources, such as nanolasers on chips,” she ...
