Heute ist weltweit Tag der Sonne. Dabei geht es vor allem um ihre Rolle als Energielieferant. Denn bereits 1978, als der ehemalige US-Präsident Jimmy Carter den Ehrentag für unseren Fixstern ins Leben gerufen hat, war man sich der enormen Möglichkeiten des Energieriesen Sonne bewusst. Was für große Photovoltaik- und Solaranlagen gilt, lässt sich aber auch […]
Wieviel Energie steckt in einer Zitrone? Wie wird der eigene Körper zur Energiequelle für Funk? Bereits zum fünften Mal hatten wir technikinteressierte Schülerinnen bei uns zu Gast. Im Rahmen des diesjährigen Girls‘ Day erlebten sie, wie spannend die Berufsfelder Elektrotechnik, Mechanik und Softwareentwicklung sind. Neben etwas Theorie gab es vor allem Technik zum Anfassen und […]

Makers need attractive prototypes that can be produced as quickly as possible with the least amount of effort. While the implementation of a housing used to require a design expert and an outlay of several tens of thousands of […]
Energy harvesting wireless technology allows various switches and sensors to work without wires or batteries. They can be installed in less than ten minutes, as opposed to traditional switches, which can take 3 hours and 20 minutes (since you have to open up walls, run wires, install the switch, fix the hole, repaint, etc). What […]
For centuries, people have been looking for ways to store electrical energy so that it can be used later on. While batteries offer a way to do this, they also have many weaknesses. Energy harvesting, on the other hand, uses sources of energy that are available in the immediate surroundings, anywhere and anytime. This technology […]
