The concept of the wristwatch dates back to the production of the earliest watches in the 16th century. We have come a long way since then. The design, features, and working principle of watches have evolved a lot over time. These days expensive...
AI and Robotics are undoubtedly two of the most promising fields of study right now. These two will certainly define the future of humanity. At present, we have ultra-modern machines with sleek designs, agile and highly capable bodies, which are...
When it comes to motherboards, everyone wants something different for their desktop. Some people like to have multiple USB port options for connectivity, while some prefer multiple graphics cards for extensive gaming. But there is one important...
A telescope is, basically, an instrument that allows us to observe and study astronomical objects in different frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum, from gamma-rays to low-frequency radio waves (including visible wavelength). Based on the...
Solid-state batteries are one of the promising candidates for next-generation batteries that could provide more safety and high performance at low costs. They can operate at higher temperatures due to their better thermal stability. The development...
Construction vehicles have a long history: different kinds of equipment have been used since at least the first century BCE when Vitruvius, a Roman architect/engineer, described the crane as a machine powered by animal or human labor. Today, the...
The standard legal definition of a motorcycle used by different countries and government authorities is ‘a two-wheel powered motorcycle.’ In many cases, this definition is extended to include three-wheeled vehicles. While there is no...
Titanium is a “superhero” element with extraordinary properties. It is the ninth most abundant metal in Earth’s crust. In fact, small amounts of titanium occur in almost every igneous rock. Commercially pure grades of titanium have...
When people talk about computer storage, they usually refer to hard drives. These are devices that store all computer data permanently. They are non-volatile devices, which means they can keep information safe and intact even when there is no power...
Before the emergence of flintlock muskets in the 17th century and matchlock Arquebus even before that, armies and militias relied almost entirely on bladed weapons for combat. These bladed or edged weapons include knives, daggers, swords, and...
Can you guess the fastest airspeed an aircraft has ever achieved? It is close to 10,200 km/h or 6,300+ mph. Quite astounding. But the more important question is how did we reach this level. In the late-1930s, when the first fully jet-powered...
The first full-scale, self-propelled car was built by Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot in 1769: it was a steam-powered tricycle. A variety of steam cars were then built during the first half of the 19th century. In 1886, a German engineer invented the first...
