Electrical power plants supply around 20% of their output for lighting. LED lighting can reduce this demand by around 80%, however this is not perfect. Driver efficiencies are typically 80-90% and low cost solutions often suffer from high flicker,
I am using the full daytime/daylight charging cycle for my Humanoid. Of course I have not managed to get energy out of zero, yet! What I am planning is to partner up with high density, green battery technologies such as the urine fuel cell developed in the UK.
The project deals with the development of a home automation system.
Watching the market I recognized that the common so called smart home seems to be nothing more than a collection of devices which are remotely controlled by your smartphone.
Flexible field effect transistors (FET) reported till date contains polymers like PDMS (Poly-dimethyl siloxane) or PS (Polystyrene) as substrate or gate material. This possess serious limitations in terms of their fabrication procedure, repeatability, bio-degradability, bending and long-term aging response. In this work,
