Terahetz Application

Posted by Website Introductions: Using Terahetz waves can be more powerfull that x-rays and microscopes.THz waves are already in actions for years, it is already used in new 3D scanners seen in airports but using the technology on practical applications is not that avisable 'cause sensors used are too bulky. But thank to a four year project called TeraNova, Quantum Cascade lasers

Sensors that detect your intent

Posted by Website Introductions: A piece of metal can mean something, or something else. This is why I have never believed in the power of metal detectors in airports. Now, researchers are taking security to an even higher level by creating detectors that claim to find out if you had the intention to harm, based on your unconscious reaction to stimuli. Now, will this work against

Smart traffic plan will effectively battle traffic congestion--but where s the money

Posted by Website Introductions: Traffic lights are helpful, alright, as it monitors the flow of vehicles from place to place. What I (we ) only find annoying about these lights are they are stubborn in the sense that they do not adjust to immediate changes in the environment. There may be an answer to that in the form of this smart sensor system that adjusts traffic light

Wireless Sensor Networks Go Against Flooding

Posted by Website Introductions: The thing about sewage systems is that there is a tendency to have quite a number of parts of it untouched with rainwater that it is supposed to hold. Probably it's just faulty design. Probably it's just a problem with changing patterns. I do not know. But a way should be done to spread the spills to the untouched places. In this case, wireless
