If you know about Peltier modules, a solid-state fridge seems like an easy project. Pump 12V into the module, include a heat sink and a fan. Then you are done, right? According to [Peltier Power], ...

An international research team has achieved record perovskite solar module stability under light, heat, and UV stress with a chemistry-driven passivation technology that is industry-compatible.

The research showed a ‘catastrophic’ decline in POE-C module performance, particularly for maximum power output (P max), shown in purple. Image: UNSW. The use of polyolefin elastomers (POE) as an ...

This all-purpose presence sensor is a master at monitoring indoor activity and linking it to smart home features you already use. Tyler has worked on, lived with and tested all types of smart home and ...

This tiny chip can withstand temperatures up to 1,500 degrees and could one day sit inside the core of a nuclear reactor, delivering critical real-time data. Reading time 2 minutes Generating nuclear ...

The ability to sense heat protects the body from burns and injury. But how the body actually feels temperature has remained an elusive mystery. Now, Northwestern University researchers have captured a ...

Sensors placed around the office space record the heat and then incorporate AI to look at every aspect of physical interactions. Companies use the data to make decisions about layout and design, ...

Raspberry Pi launched a follow-up to its Camera Module 3 with the Camera Module 3 Sensor Assembly. Now, Raspberry Pi users can put the camera sensors into their own custom form factors. The move ...

For home HVAC systems, heat pumps seem to be the way of the future. When compared to electric heating they can be three to four times more efficient, and they don’t directly burn fossil fuels. They ...

While they all signal hot and potentially dangerous conditions, each alert type has a specific meaning, and knowing the difference could help you avoid heat-related illness. A heat advisory is issued ...

Just in time for summer, here comes the heat. "A dangerous, widespread heat wave will bake the central and eastern U.S., bringing the hottest temperatures of the year and uncomfortably muggy air to ...

The hottest temperatures of the year so far will soon reach the eastern half of the United States as a brutal heat dome continues to build. Tens of millions of people from the Midwest to the East ...
