Machine learning-assisted lens-loaded cavity response optimization for improved direction-of-arrival estimation
Lens-loaded dynamic aperture The system block diagram is shown in Fig. 1—a single-input single-output lens-loaded cavity antenna is connected to a baseband processing unit via a single RF chain. The lens-loaded cavity antenna in and of itself serves as a replacement for an antenna array aperture, so therefore, it is simply […]
Researchers optimize micro-3D printing technology for microneedles
Researchers from the University of Birmingham and University of Southern Queensland are exploring the use of micro-3D printing technology to create microneedles. The approach leverages a process called two-photon polymerization (2PP), a form of highly-precise resin 3D printing that’s particularly adept at fabricating complex microstructures with resolutions in the nanometer […]
How to Spot Credit Card Interest Rate Scams

Ferrofluid Display Gets New, Better Driver Circuitry
In 2019 [Simen] and [Amud], two students from the University of Oslo, set out to design a unique open-source display. The result was Fetch, a display that uses electromagnets to suspend ferrofluid on 252 “pixels” across the screen. After some delays due to COVID, they have recently unveiled version 2.0 […]
