Embedded system

has its own built-in conduction system for generating action potentials spontaneously and coordinating contractions during the cardiac cycle. All the cardiac muscle fibers in each region of the heart are electrically linked together. The intercalated disks are connections that electrically join the muscle fibers of the heart into a single unit that can conduct electrical impulses through the entire wall of the heart chamber without stopping. Four structures are embedded in the wall of the heart…

You may call it the Big Bang Theory or even the Big Splash, but the Theia Impact is the biggest contribution to our planet and is timeless to us humans. Although the impact happened 4.5 billion years ago, and 30 to 50 million years after the solar system began to form, a mars sized rock created a modern tool used everyday by everybody. Earth’s moon is unique in matter and how it became apart of our planet's orbit. Moons are captured by their planets by their rings and pull of the orbit of the…

Raspberry Pi being often used not only for educational purposes but also (individually or in sets) in steering processes or measurement systems. Fig. 1. Raspberry Pi Model B. The module of the Raspberry Pi microcomputer is based on the Broadcom BCM2835 SoC unit. Generally, the SoC (system - on - the chip) defines the structure that includes a complete microprocessor system, so there is the central unit (CPU), FLASH or ROM, EEPROM and RAM memory, digital and analog devices, and also the…

triple axis accelerometer has been used to measure the position and acceleration respectively. The emphasis of this paper is given on the interfacing of the sensors with Friendly ARM mini2440 and the resultant control algorithm implemented on the embedded platform to control the designed testbench. The control algorithm implemented is PID control. It is to be noted that the entire project was done to study the movements of an underwater vehicle and the ensuing control strategies and the…

identification of a boundary-maintaining entity or process” (p.7). A number of systems were noted and intertwined within the movie. Within each system, a different side of the individual was portrayed. Systems theory “describes human behavior in terms of complex systems. It is premised on the idea that an effective system is based on individual needs, rewards, expectations, and attributes of the people living in the system. According to this theory, families, couples, and organization members…

With unfettered patriotism and false pretenses, the United States exudes great pride in its democratic system. Every four years the people disconnect their impenetrable gaze from their televisions and phone screens to go out and express their civic duty to vote. Only to return, November 9th, to American mainstream culture, characterized by ignorant complacency and weapons of mass distraction for another four years. More and more people, however, are coming to realize that the state of our…

The Voyager spacecraft program started the worlds endeavor to explore farther regions of our local solar system. The program takes in hand the idea behind the Planetary Grand Tour. In which they would utilize the rare alignment of the planets in their favor, so that the craft would take less time and fuel, having the ability to visit Jupiter and Saturn. With the main mission, the study of both Saturn, and Jupiter, including the planets’ moons, rings, and atmospheric composition. Later, one of…

US customary units of measure, derived from the ancient imperial units, are still in use today in the US, Liberia and Burma. This non-coherent system of measures is difficult, even for the people raised in the country itself. My brother Victor Salas, 13, explains that although he was taught the imperial system at school, he would rather use the metric system, for its simplicity and worldwide usage. Secondly, their food quality is among the worst in the planet. A country known for their…

with a holistic approach in order gain an all-inclusive perspective. Specifically, the following factors will be addressed in the assessment: biological, neurobiological, psychological, social, and the developmental aspects of Emma. Further, the systems theory and the ecological perspective will be employed as methods of explaining presenting issues of the case. Presenting Problems As noted in the case study, Emma was referred to the Family Services Agency by her pediatrician for further…
