Introduction Graphene is considered as pure carbon in the form of a very thin, one atom thick nearly transparent sheet. It is very strong for its low weight (100 times more stronger than steel and it conducts heat and electricity efficiently. While scientists had theorized about graphene for decades, it was first produced in the lab in 2003. Because it is virtually two-dimensional, it interacts oddly with light and with other materials. Researchers have identified the, ballistic transport of…
practicality for the consumer but also ease of travel, a sense of modern day fashion, versatility and also usefulness with a modern day touch of technology These designs include: • Separate areas for clothing and computing technologies • In built battery (24000 Mah) and wiring to allow on the go charging of computers, phones and tablets in their separate purpose built compartments • Work station for business Given…
The History Of Video Game Consoles Video game consoles have been around for a long time, and they have influenced how technology is for us today. Some of the earliest consoles, the Brown Box and even the Atari, have a big impact on how are video game consoles are designed for us. The Brown Box and some of the earliest consoles, have paved the way video game consoles are today and for the future. The Brown Box was released in 1970 (TIME,1) and it was one of the earliest video game consoles to…

have become more energy efficient since the internet’s release, consumers frequently replace these devices in order to accommodate the ever changing nature of the internet (such as larger file sizes). Dangerous computer components such as the lithium ion batteries found in laptops, are piling up in landfills across the globe. Furthermore, the internet requires a lot of electricity in order to properly function. The data centers filled with energy consuming servers paired with the billions of…
04 billion in Research and development so far. Tim Cook , CEO of the company is facing much pressure to return this money its shareholders.A case is filed against this company stating that “ Apple has started the campaign of hiring best minds for battery making, despite a company who is starting from scratch needs more than 10 years to launch its products. Apple is planning to unveil it as soon as…
The Nanotube Introduction: Nanotubes, specifically the carbon nanotubes are just one of the handful of structures engineers and scientist use today that fall in the nanoscale category. Structures in the nanoscale category are usually between 1-100 nanometers, which one nanometer is one-billionth the size of a meter. A confusing yet beneficial property found in materials at the nanoscale is a concept call quantum called quantum mechanics. In quantum mechanics the laws of classic or Newtonian…

beginning to find out that there is a better, safer, and much cheaper alternative to smoking. That alternative is an Electronic Cigarette, which was first invented by a man by the name of Hon. The first “vaporizer” consisted of 3 simple parts: a lithium-ion battery, a small cartridge filled with the “e-juice”, and an atomizer, which is used to create heat, causing the juice to “vaporize”, making it ready to inhale. Cigarettes are made by growing tobacco, E-cigarettes contain far less chemicals…
Consumer products Another application of nanotechnology in daily routine is consumer products. It is used from clothing to cosmetic products. - Silver nanoparticles used in fabric for the purpose of killing bacteria - It is used in lithium ion batteries for powering plug-in electric cars - It is used in skin care products for delivering vitamins deeper into the skin - Used in furniture with carbon nano-fibers for flame retardant by coating the foam (Everyday Applications of Nanotechnology)…
