Elecia White, Embedded Software Engineer, co-host of the Embedded podcast and author of Making Embedded Systems, 2nd Edition will be leading an O'Reilly Expert Webinar session on "Introduction to Embedded Systems" on May 23,2024.
If you're curious about Embedded Systems development and how to get started, this is a webinar you don't want to miss.
> Daimler Truck North America said Friday it will spend $40 million to build a new electric vehicle engineering facility at its Swan Island headquarters, choosing Portland over two other sites it had considered. The company said it will also build a new $3 million Portland training facility.
Just got off the Falkirk Wheel and it's a great experience on an incredible bit of engineering. We were taken up, piloted along the aqueduct, turned around, and came back the same way. Smooth ride, barely even notice you're being lifted or lowered.
Heading back towards #Greenock through #Glasgow and we've got a sea day tomorrow before we reach the Shetlands.
#3Dprinting has revolutionized manufacturing in a variety of ways, and now researchers are learning how it can improve the performance of energetic materials – like explosives and rocket propellants
On May 7 at 4:30 PM EDT, Jon Leydens will deliver the Bovay Lecture in the History & Ethics of Engineering at Cornell University. His research concerns how engineering education can contribute to social justice, sociotechnical thinking, and humanitarian engineering.
How are we building the largest #telescope dome ever? In the latest episode of Chasing Starlight we take you on a behind-the-scenes tour of the dome of ESO's Extremely Large Telescope in #Chile
It's 88 m wide and 80 m tall, and it will shelter the ELT and its optics & instruments from the harsh environment of the Atacama Desert –– a true feat of #engineering
The Advanced Composite Solar Sail System (ACS3) technology demonstrator launched on April 23, 2024.
It uses #composite materials in its novel, lightweight booms that deploy from a #CubeSat. Data obtained from ACS3 will guide the design of future larger-scale composite solar sail systems that could be used for space weather early warning satellites, near-Earth #asteroid reconnaissance missions, or communications relays.
This week I enjoyed the interviews with Hazel Weakley and Melinda French Gates.
For some reason, I also have a few clubbing related links. If you like electronic music and play around with it yourself, I recommend the podcast with Alex McLean about live coding.
An #aerospace#engineering company called Planesanity has designed a glass pod with a pair of seats inside that can be installed on existing aircraft, giving passengers a 360-degree view during flight. #avgeek
