Hi. Today I am going to show you How To make AC detector.Speaking about AC or alternating currents, it is far more dangerous than DC. It can easily kill you if the voltage is 220v or 110v city power.Before touching any live wire always make sure no high voltage is available there.So, how you can(…)
For a couple years, I helped the Children’s Museum of Bozeman develop curriculum for their STEAMlab. I was always looking for fun ways to engage kids with electronics and coding. Minecraft is an easy way to get kids in the door and there are tons of resources for using it in fun and educational ways…By:(…)
As is tradition, finished product image first.Inspired from masteruan’s similar build, which I will link below, I set off to build my own micro sized Electro-Magnetic Field Detector. The goals were to make this as small as possible while retaining enough stability that it would not break in someone’…By: bcb10 Continue Reading » Instructables: exploring(…)
Building a "semi-directional" radiation and cosmic-ray detector is not an easy feat. I aimed to design, construct, and test a portable and versatile Silicon photo-diode Radiation Detector suitable for the 5keV-10MeV detection range to accurately quantify low energy gamma-rays emanating from radioact…By: wavelet_spaghetti Continue Reading » Instructables: exploring – featured
