"Y-y-y-es s-sir." "For heavens sake stop shaking man!" Melvin goes home and gathers the things that he needs. Tony is talking to a good friend on the phone. "Hi Joe. I was thinking of installing some security round here. A few things have been going missing and I was wondering what kind of security they have over there because it looks like it's not very heavily guarded." "That's what they want people to think, but its got all these hi-tech gizmos." "Really! Like what?" "Well I can't tell you, it's against the rules." "Come on, I have been your friend for 10 years now." "True. Well they only have two security systems." "Only two?" "Wait for it. They have a battery sensor."

Developing an opacity
Developing an opacity sensor There is a huge range of different sensors in this world, designed to detect changes in temperature, size, distance and many other important factors. Their ability to do this makes them valuable for use in industry, in particular, production processes. I have chosen to develop a sensor which measures the concentration of solution, suitable for the factory production of pre-diluted fruit squashes. The sensor can control the machinery via a servo-mechanism, indicating whether more squash needs to be added. The context in which my sensor is to be used is an important consideration as it determines a suitable sensitivity and resolution. Factors to consider when designing a sensor: Sensitivity The ratio of change of output to change of input. A very sensitive sensor will give a big change of output for a small change of input. A sensor which detects very small changes of input will need to be very sensitive so these changes can be observed. Resolution The smallest change the sensor can detect in the quantity it is measuring. If you had a quantity which was displayed as 0.0076, this sensor would have quite a high resolution (depending on what it was measuring). If the last digit were fluctuating this would be the maximum resolution of the sensor as it can only just resolve a change of that magnitude - 10,000th. A cooks oven may only need a
Electronics… did it change the way we are living nowadays?
Practical Application of Electronics To Communications A Research Paper In Partial Fulfillment of the Subject English 102 Submitted to: Ms. Cherry Lyn Porras Submitted by: Roy Anthony M. Saniana ECE 1-B `I. INTRODUCTION A. Statement of the Problem and Objectives Electronics... did it change the way we are living nowadays? Electronics is a branch of physical science that studies the flow of electrons through vacuums, gases, and semi-conductors. In fact, electronic devices use vacuums, gases, or semi-conductors to control the flow of electrons very precisely. But how does electronics really work on electronic devices, especially to communication devices such as TV and radio? What practical application would it produce to communication? How important is electronic communication to our life? These are the questions that this research aims to answer. Thus, the objective of this study is to enlighten us on how big a part electronics plays on our daily lives. B. Significance of the Study This study will help people analyze and understand the part played by electronics on devices and appliances such as TV, radio, phones and those which helps transmits communications. In the present, almost all our appliances use electronics and we are enjoying its service but many of us don't know how it works. For most people, this is a big mystery, or some just choose to
Design and Technology Project Design an Advertisement
A commercial company requires an electronic advert to display their goods. Design and make an electronic advertisement to do this. What makes an advert appealing? * Colour * Dynamic * Layout * Comedy * Interactivity * Shows the product in a positive form * Catches the consumers eye * Stimulating Colour- Colour is very important in an advertisement as it is normally up to the colouring of the advert to draw the consumers' eye to it. I have discovered a lot of information about colour in my research. Stimulating- My project should be made stimulating as it would help to make the advert more memorable. I could do this by using outputs such as LED's and possibly a buzzer. Using bright colours would also come into here. Dynamic- This would be a mixture of what I said under the headings stimulating and colour. Interactivity- I could ass this in by possibly making the consumer press a button to activate the outputs. Layout- Possibly a simple layout would be best with an advertisement but one which best shows the product off. Comedy- This would be up to what picture I used or possibly a line of text I put on my project but it is up to what product I wish to advertise. Shows the product in a positive point- My project will have to show the product in a positive way as it would be useless to show it in a negative way if you want people to buy it. LDR- A light dependant
A commercial company requires a dynamic advert for displaying their wares in a showroom/office etc. Design and make an advert, which includes electronics.
Situation: A commercial company requires a dynamic advert for displaying their wares in a showroom/office etc. Design and make an advert, which includes electronics. Solution: I have a huge interest in cars especially up market sports cars like Ferrari and Porsche. I will design a 3D advert to advertise one of these models using a series of flashing L.E.D's and a car alarm. The Internet I can use the internet as the basis of my project. I can find out about different types off adverts and research Porsche. I can use it to contact different companies. Companies I can E-mail these companies for information on their products and how best to advertise them. Magazines I can use these to look for advert ideas for products. My Teacher My teacher can give me ideas on how to go about producing my project. Classmates I can survey my classmates on how they think best to advertise a car. I used many forms of information, which I have listed below and I would like to thank them for their cooperation. www.porsche.com Isaac Agnew Limited (A Porsche Dealer in Belfast) Below is a copy of the E-mail I sent to Isaac Agnew. Dear sir/Madame, I am currently studying GCSE Design and Technology at St. Louis Grammar School Ballymena and I would be most grateful if you could forward to me any information, which may be of use to me. My design brief is: A commercial company requires
Electronics Product Evaluation
Electronics Product Evaluation In my GCSE Major project for DT electronic products, I wasn't pleased with my circuit, as however many times I tested it, it wouldn't work. However, I think the rest of my project went well. The first thing I did was design my circuit by computer. I based it on one published in Everyday Practical Electronics Magazine, although I made some alterations to it to suit my specifications. This was then etched in copper onto my printed circuit board. Next to be added were the components. After going down to Maplins to buy what I needed, I drilled holes in my PCB and soldered them in. This was one area where I had problems because sometimes as soon as the solder dried I noticed it hadn‚t stuck onto the PCB and I had to do it again. Needless to say it took me a lengthy period of time to solder every component. The casing wasn‚t as tricky for me to make. Two of the boxes I made were for two separate teams in a pub quiz and both contained of just a large push-button. The main box was designed for the referee of the game to monitor who answered the questions first, and consisted of the main circuit, an on/off switch and a reset switch. To make the main box I took five pieces of acrylic and sawed them to the right size. Mr Heather glued them together. Next lesson when the glue was set, I took another piece of acrylic and bent it with a strip heater
Electronics scoreboard
Situation Brief & Aims Situation My Project is designed to resolve the problem of when you are playing snooker and you score a point you would have to put the points up one by one on an manual snooker scoreboard and you could make a mistake and put to fewer or to many points on the board. It also saves you having to stop from the game that you are playing to go over to the scoreboard and manually put the score up. It is also designed to resolve arguments between players and make sure it is all fair and there is no cheating going on. There are already scoreboards that are screwed on to table and stick up and ones you can clip to the table and they get in your way when you take a shot my scoreboard is designed to resolve this problem. Brief I intend to design a device that will improve scoring for snooker. I want to make the device screw able to the table so in a public place it would not get stolen, but I will try to have space so that the battery can be changed. I'm going to try to make the device portable and also make it look presentable and nice. Aims . Final product must look good 2. Device design must be small, portable and light 3. Must be easy to access batteries for changing 4. Device should be screw able to the table 5. Device must have rounded edges so that it is not sharp 6. Must be cost effective Task Analysis This is my task analysis. It
Invention of the Internet
Technology has also been a part of our daily lives. The implementation of technology influences the values of a society by changing expectations and realities. New inventions of technology are usually created to simplify life somehow. One of the greatest inventions in the last hundred years is the internet. The ever expanding internet has revolutionized the way Americans live their lives. The internet has a major impact on society and our culture. The internet has completely broken down the borders that our ancestors had. With the internet, everything that we could possibly want is at the click of a button. People can instantly instant message and video chat will people half way across the world. People now work from home, shop from home, do everything they possible want from home. But if people do not have access to the internet they cannot compete is this new global market place of unending ideas. In the beginning, when the internet first came into play America's were startled and amazed by the possibilities of communication that the World Wide Web brought. He web is mainly a way that brings people together to communicate. The web is a layer of system upon system (Bowell). The Web is a continual ongoing process. It has never stopped replicating itself or processing since the first day it began. However, even though there many different systems on the web, no website is

Design and build an electrical toy for children aged 5 years and over.
GCSE Technology Coursework 2002-2003 Section One: Introduction Brief I intend to design and build an electrical toy for children aged 5 years and over. Children enjoy playing with electrical toys especially electrical pets, electrical cars and electrical trains. However having performed a study into the types of electrical toys on the market I have found a few that as to my knowledge do not exist. So I believe there is a need for a fresh idea in the electrical toy industry. The marketable product I intend to design and build will probably be made of plastic and/or wood with some form of a system inside. Section Two: Research Ideas . A remote controlled 'low-rider' car. 2. A Scalextric 'Smoke Start' System. 3. A mobile. 4. An electrical gear ratio demonstrator. 5. A pull-back car with lights working on a dynamo. 6. A remote controlled racing car. 7. A toy car launcher. 8. A mechanised pinball machine. 9. A mechanised fruit machine. 0. A mechanised 'ball' game. Explanation of My Ideas A Remote Controlled 'Low-rider' Car This is a car that is powered by batteries. The controller would be on a lead attached to the car. A button or some sort of trigger would be on the controller to activate the motor in the car similar to the type used in Hornby Railway trains and Scalextric cars. The 'Low-rider' suspension will either be a very simple form of hydraulics or gas.
