The function of this automatic volume control circuit is to amplify signals without distorting its dynamic compression. The amplitude differences in the signal are levelled off and the disturbing ...

To understand how driverless vehicles can navigate the complexities of the road, researchers often use game theory—mathematical models representing the way rational agents behave strategically to meet ...

Power plants–especially coal-fired boilers–pose a set of process control problems unparalleled in other industries. Rapid load ramps, continuous unit demand changes, variable fuel quality and process ...

Dual-zone climate control is a system that allows the vehicle’s front-seat passengers to set their own preferred temperature for their “zone,” or their area of the front cabin. It’s a smarter, more ...

RS-232 was the PC serial communications standard for many years. Hardware and software support for this simple, yet effective, interface was included on every PC made until it was eventually replaced ...

Automation takes mechanization one step further. While mechanization replaces manual labor with machines, automation replaces human guidance with controls hardware, computers, and programming (PCs, ...

As you may well know, automatic control for a water tap can significantly reduce water consumption to some extent. Besides, automatic faucets can eliminate cross-contamination by keeping hands and ...
