SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) is a process used by autonomous robots and devices to build a map of an unknown environment while simultaneously keeping track of their location within it. SLAM is crucial for robots, drones, self-driving cars, and augmented reality systems, as it allows them to navigate environments without prior knowledge or GPS… Continue reading SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) for Robots

Select the revolve function Select the sketch and axis around which the sketch must revolve Then select the angle through which it needs to be revolved and the operation type. The different operation types are like that of the extrude function After giving the desired input click ok button to obtain the revolve As… Continue reading Comprehensive guide for using Revolve tool in Fusion 360
Composition of PCB
Printed Circuit board is a thin laminate sheet made up of fiberglass generally but also composite epoxy at times. It mechanically supports and electrically connects conducting material and electronic components. PCB Composition Base – PCB is a thin laminate sheet made up of fibreglass (FR4) as its base material or substrate. This solid core… Continue reading Composition of PCB
Human detection Sensors – DFRobot mmWave
Introduction What is a mmWave radar sensor? Millimeter-wave radar technology is a contactless sensing technology for detecting objects and providing the range, velocity and angle of those objects (in our case humans). mmWave sensors transmit signals with a wavelength in the high frequency spectrum between 24GHz and 300GHz, also called the millimeter (mm) range. Accurate… Continue reading Human detection Sensors – DFRobot mmWave
Round Display –
RP2040-LCD-1.28 Overview RP2040-LCD-1.28 is a low-cost, high-performance MCU board designed by Waveshare. Although it is tiny, it incorporates a 1.28inch LCD round display, Li-ion battery charger, 6-axis sensor (3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope), and so on, adapting all GPIO and Debug headers, which makes it easy for you to develop and integrate it into products… Continue reading Round Display –
Color Sensor TCS34725
Assembly and Wiring Both color sensors come with all surface mount components pre-soldered. The breakout-board version comes with an optional header for breadboard use. Soldering the header is a simple process: Assembly (breakout version only) Position the header Trim the header to length if necessary and insert it (long pins down) into your breadboard. Position… Continue reading Color Sensor TCS34725
ArduRover
1.Introduction Rover is a sophisticated open-source firmware, specially designed for autopilots in ground and water vehicles. This firmware supports not only conventional 3 or 4 wheel configurations, but also extends to boats, sailboats, balance bots, and walking robots. This versatile system can run missions autonomously, which can be defined via mission planning software or manually… Continue reading ArduRover
Factors Affecting Capacitance
Distance Between the Plates (d): A smaller distance between the plates increases the electric field strength and thus the capacitance. Area of the Plates (A): Larger plate areas allow for more charge storage, increasing capacitance. Dielectric Material: The type of insulating material between the plates, known as dielectric, affects how much electric field can be… Continue reading Factors Affecting Capacitance
Capacitor
A capacitor is an electronic component that stores and releases electrical energy in a circuit. It consists of two conductive plates (often made of metal) separated by an insulating material known as a dielectric. When a voltage is applied across the plates, an electric field develops across the dielectric, causing an accumulation of electric charges… Continue reading Capacitor
