An Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) is a microchip customized for a particular use rather than intended for general-purpose use. ASIC chips are designed, developed, and manufactured for very specific applications like mobile processors, graphic cards, network routers etc. They offer advantages over general-purpose processors as they can be customized for higher performance, very...
Rapid Liquid Printing: The Future of 3D PrintingRapid liquid printing (RLP) is an advanced 3D printing technology that deposits liquids instead of powders or filaments. Developed by engineers at MIT, RLP uses photo cross-linking to rapidly solidify liquid resin droplets into precise 3D shapes. It has the potential to transform manufacturing by dramatically increasing 3D printing speeds for low...
Advancements in Medical ImagingOver the past few decades, the field of medical imaging has vastly advanced due to rapid technological developments. Modern medical imaging equipment allows healthcare professionals to view the human body in intricate detail without invasive procedures. Technologies like MRI, CT, X-ray, ultrasound and PET scans provide detailed internal images that assist doctors...
The Evolution Hospital bed design has evolved significantly over the years to meet the needs of patients and care providers. Early beds were basic wooden frames with thin mattresses that offered little support or comfort. In the 19th century, brass beds became popular, featuring head and foot rails made from the metal. However, these beds remained fairly rigid with no adjustability. In the...
Understanding How Electroretinogram Testing Works An electroretinogram, commonly known as ERG, is a diagnostic tool that helps ophthalmologists evaluate the health and function of the retina. During an ERG test, electrodes are placed on the surface of the eyelid and cornea to detect and measure tiny electrical potentials that are produced by retinal cells in response to light flashes or...
