What is a Tempered Glass? Tempered Glass is a type of safety glass processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. Tempering creates imbalanced internal stresses which cause the glass, when broken, to crumble into small granular chunks instead of splintering into jagged shards. The granular chunks are less likely to cause injury. What makes Tempered Glass...

Capacitive sensing in touch screens has been around since the 1970s, but with the recent explosion in popularity of the smartphone, Multi-Touch Projected Capacitive technology has come to the forefront of touch screen technology. A projected capacitive type multi-touch screen is a touch user interface that allows users to interact with the device with the touch of a finger. The...

Embedded computers and their significance in technology include a specific function within a larger computerized system.  All of the parts come together to form an enclosure that is designed specifically for industrial applications like POS, transportation, or control to provide higher reliability. Embedded computers are embedded as part of a complete device, often including hardware and mechanical parts. By contrast...

Safeguarding Electronic Systems: The Critical Role of IP and NEMA Ratings In industrial settings, dust and water are ubiquitous, posing significant threats to electrical equipment. These environments are rife with airborne particles and moisture, which, if allowed to infiltrate sensitive electronic components, can lead to corrosion, short circuits, and ultimately, equipment failure. In such harsh conditions, the durability and resilience...
