An engineer's job description involves a great deal of creating things based on the knowledge learned in school and the course of their career. These creations qualify as creations of the mind which is the very definition of intellectual property and thus protectable under IP laws.
So, understanding your rights as an engineer is critical to your profitability. This guide highlights types of intellectual property that have a huge significance to an engineer, such as patent, industrial design, trademark, copyright, and trade secret protections.
If you are venturing into a career as an engineer or have been in it but never paid attention to your IP rights, this will be an excellent read for you.
Understanding IP Laws
IP laws are designed to protect creations of the mind, also called ...
Hello friends, hope you all are fine and having fun with your lives. In today's tutorial, we are gonna see Color Detection in Images using MATLAB. In the previous tutorial, I have posted about How to Detect Circles in Images using MATLAB in which we have detected objects based on their geometrical figure means either they are circle or not but today we are gonna distinguish objects based on their color i.e. whether they are red colored or green colored etc. Its a quite simple tutorial and comes in the basic category. We will first detect the color and then will create a boundary around that object and will also show its XY coordinates as well.
Image processing is an important tool of MATLAB. We can quite easily do the image processing in it using ...
Hello everyone! I hope you all will be absolutely fine and having fun. Today, I will tell you the key steps about How to Design an Engineering Product. In this tutorial you will learn almost all the necessary steps to be taken while launching an engineering product. They very basic and the most important thing before launching any product, is the idea to be selected for the product designing. The selected idea plays a vital role in the product designing. The idea could be anything, like it is not restricted to either only software products or the hardware products. It could be software, hardware or a combination of both as well. But the uniqueness and something new in the idea results in the popularity of launched product. Most of the engineers w ...
Hello friends, I hope you are fine and doing great in your lives. Today, I am not going to write an article or a tutorial, rather I am going to tell you about different engineering projects that I have worked on. If I am talking about engineering projects then it means a variety of different kind of projects. These projects may include microcontroller based projects with Arduino, 8051 or pic, 555 timer based projects, Matlab projects, LabVIEW projects, Proteus projects and a lot more.
In this article, I am going to share some of the very interesting projects from my list. If you are an engineering student or someone who loves to work on engineering projects, then you can definitely start from here. The first ones that I am discussing with you are ...
Casinos, known for their luxury and excitement, have always drawn our curiosity towards a special group of gamblers who wager sums larger than most people earn in a month or even a year. What motivates these high rollers? What makes them take such enormous risks at the table? In this exploration of their world, we aim to uncover the secrets behind their winning mindset, and perhaps find inspiration that can be applied to our own endeavors.
Who are the High Rollers?
In the casino industry, there are individuals known as high rollers or "whales" who are willing to place large bets on a single wager. But what motivates them? It's not solely about the money; it's also about the thrill of adrenaline, a genuine love for the game, and at times, the desire for recognition. Consider th ...
Hi, I hope you all are doing great. Today we are talking about the silkscreen on the printed circuit boards (PCBs). We know that PCBs are the essential parts of electronic devices, and there are a variety of PCBs for different circuits. Generally, silkscreening is the process of surface printing with the help of a design cut out on a sheet. But, we are particularly talking about the silkscreen on the PCB. It is a crucial step in the PCB design and plays a role during the PCB assembly to make sure the PCB is designed well. Generally, silkscreen is used to provide basic information about the components on the PCBs. This article has a silkscreen introduction, types, and methods.
Introduction to PCB Silkscreen
The PCB Silkscreen is a layer of non-electric permanent epoxy ink present in the f ...
Hello everyone! I hope you will be absolutely fine and having fun. Today, I am going to give you a detailed Introduction to ULN2003. We will also discuss the ULN2003 Datasheet, Pinout, Circuit Diagram & Proteus Simulation. If you have ever controlled any motor (i.e. DC Motor, Stepper Motor etc.) with a microcontroller (i.e. PIC, Arduino etc.), then you must have heard about drivers. Why do we need to use drivers? We use drivers (to control motors) because of two reasons.
First: Microcontrollers operate at 5V while motors operate at different voltages (5V, 12V, 24V etc.).
Second: Motors are Inductive loads thus they produce back emf, which may damage your microcontroller permanently (if not handled correctly).
Because of these two reasons, we have to use the driver in between t ...
Hello friends, I hope all are fine and having fun with your projects. We have covered enough Arduino commands in this Arduino Tutorial for Beginners series and now we are ready to create a simple project by interfacing an LED (Light Emitting Diode). Today, I am going to share a very Simple Arduino LED Example in Proteus ISIS. First I will blink single LED using Arduino UNO and then I will blink multiple LEDs in Proteus.
When you start working on Arduino then Arduino LED example is the first example which you must try because its the easiest one. Moreover, we all know that we have a small LED connected to pin # 13 on each Arduino so you can also check your Arduino as well that whether its working or not. So, let's get started with Simple Arduino LE ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, I am going to give you a detailed comparison, Hostinger vs. Siteground and will tell you which one is better? When it comes to website hosting, it can be considered an important part of the whole web development thing. If you thought that just creating a website would be enough to make it all successful, then you would definitely be wrong. There are many other factors that come to light when you build a website. Web hosting is one such factor.
To find a popular and well-known web hosting service is really important for any web developer as it helps in the product development process. Plus, who wouldn’t want their websites to have the perfect ratings and reviews? Having the perfect ...
By using CNC-machined parts for your next engineering project, you can ensure precision, quality, and speed. So, let us take a look at three options for creating custom parts.
What Is CNC Machining?
Before we look at the three options available to you, it is worth briefly explaining what CNC machining is. CNC machining is short for Computer Numerical Control. It is a modern manufacturing method that involves the use of computer-controlled machinery to make custom parts.
The process begins with creating a CAD design
of the part you want to make. The design is then translated into g-code
and fed into the item of CNC machinery.
The machine then simply gets to work at creating your design with the utmost precision and consistency. The types of CNC machines
range widely – from mil ...
