Thanks to Paul Czarnecki who disassembled his Fresh Breeze Ignition System to show us how to fix two of the more common problems. Like all two strokes, reliability is proportional to maintenance. Thanks also to John Black for instructions on replacing the wire that most commonly breaks (on those with certain ignition systems).
There are two problems we address: 1st is how to check the stator and replace if necessary, 2nd is how to replace the ignition wire that tends to break on some models.
One big caution: before working on these motors, it’s a great idea to remove the spark plug so they can’t accidentally start, especially with electric start machines. One experienced pilot mangled his hand when a motor started unexpectedly in the shop.
Tools in Use
The Right Tools
As most know, it’s important to have the right tools. Using the wrong tools or using tools wrongly can inflict costly damage. Don’t ask me how I know that. I wish engine sellers offered toolkits that customers could buy that had the specific tools required to work on that motor. It would be a profit center for the seller and a stress reliever for the customer. Here are a couple tools that will help on the Simonini.
The rotor wrench (above) holds the rotor while loosening the retaining bolt. As the name implies, the rotor, which holds the permanent magnet, rotates with the crankshaft. When taking it off, you need to hold the rotor in place while loosening its retaining nut. Holding the prop might also work but this tool makes it much easier.
Checking the Primary Stator Coil
If the motor gets progressively harder to start, it may be a shorting stator coil. Thankfully, it’s easy to check.
The stator coil is made of many, many thin windings with equally thin insulation. If that insulation breaks down, lazy electricity (and it’s all lazy) cuts across the short, decreasing coil effectiveness. The resulting low resistance is easy to measure. The far left mage shows which wires to measure with your Ohm meter. Pull the plugs apart and measure the wires leading upwards.
The stator output wires should be colored blue and black/red. The other wires are for charging if that is supported. Charging wires are dramatically shorter and will have a much lower resistance.
Normally, resistance is quite high since, although the coil is just a wire, it’s a very, very long, wire. About 300 Ohms is normal but if insulation is breaking down the resistance decreases. Below 190 Ohms the motor is hard to start and below 160 Ohms it’s nearly impossible.
If the resistance is less than 200 Ohms, the stator should be replaced.
Replacing the Stator
- Remove the starter housing.
- Remove the rotor housing. This may require a puller tool that screws into the hand start bell. See photo 2 under “Tools In Use”. The bell is aluminum and is easily damaged — use the right tool! Paul Czarnecki at PlanetPPG.com may have them available or know where to order them.
You may want to use heat if it’s being contankerous. Just blow hot air on the rotor unit it warms up nicely. That should expand it just enough to come off easier.
- From here the stator is held on by two bolts. Remove and replace then reverse the order of assembly.
Now go fly the thing!

Our research mainly focuses on etching and deposition of various thin films for the fabrication of microelectronics and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices, nanotechnology,
surface modification of materials, and so on.
Plasma processing and electrochemical methods are used to elucidate fundamental phenomena and mechanisms during etching and deposition of thin films.
The following describes briefly the current research interest.
Atomic Scale Plasma Etching for the Fabrication of Nano-structures As device dimensions keep shrinking below 100 nm, control of film thickness down to atomic level is increasingly required for the fabrication of extremely thin layers used in many devices.
We have developed "Atomic Scale Etching (ASE)" of poly-Si, which can give etching with atomic scale accuracy, in inductively coupled Ar and He plasmas. The process window for the realization of ASE could be obtained by varying ion energy.
Within the process window for ASE, etch rates were found to be self-limited with respect to ion energy, confirming that ASE of poly-Si was obtained at this condition.
The use of a Faraday cage system to measure the angular dependence of etch rates revealed etch mechanisms within and outside the process windows for the realization of ASE.
Mechanism and Chemistry of Deep Si Etching Plasma etching of high aspect ratio features of Si is a key process in the fabrication of Si-based MEMS devices. The Bosch process, which is known as a gas-chopping etching or time-multiplexed etching, is currently in widespread use for deep Si etching. It is a cyclic process, consisting of sequentially alternating etch and deposition steps. To date, most studies on deep Si etching have been confined to the observation of etch characteristics of blank substrate or final etch profiles obtained by changing the process variables. However, these studied do not permit an understanding of the mechanism of this process and an identification of the optimal process conditions required to yield high aspect ratio and anisotropy. During deep Si etching, various phenomena take place simul taneously such as ion-induced etching, chemical etching of the sidewall by reactive radicals, polymer deposition due to radicals, the redeposition of particles emitted from the bottom, and so on.
For better understanding of deep Si etching mechanism, we used a Faraday cage, a specially designed substrate, and sample holders. This allows one to measure individual rates of lateral and vertical etching and the angular dependence of etch rates. Based on these measurements, optimum conditions for bias voltage and source power for each step of the deep Si etching could be proposed, obtaining an anisotropic etch profiles. We have also demonstrated that the use of a Faraday cage combined with a high bias voltage in the etching step produced an etch profile combined with a high bias voltage in the etching step produced an etch profile Currently, SF and C₄F are mainly used in the etching and deposition steps of the deep Si etching, respectively. However, CF is perfluoro carbon (PFC), which is considered to be problematic from an environmental point of view because of its long atmospheric lifetime, high global warming potential, and strong infrared absorption. In order to reduce PFC emission during deep Si etching, we developed alternative chemistries to PFC for deep Si etching.
Based on understanding of the characteristics of fluorocarbon films produced in PFC and non-PFC plasmas, highly anisotropic Si etching can be successfully achieved in both PFC and non-PFC plasmas.
Electro and Electroless Deposition of capping/barrier Layers for Cu Interconnection The use of copper for wiring in the fabrication of microelectronic devices and MEMS has some advantages over aluminum wiring such as low electrical resistance, higher allowed current density, good reliability, and higher electromigration resistance. Major drawbacks for copper metallization, however, are its oxidation and diffusion into oxide layers, which degrade the performance of the devices.
To prevent copper from oxidation and diffusion, barrier/capping layers have been introduced.
Among them, composite films in the form of iron group metal-refractory metal-P(or B) have been found very promising.
We have developed baths for electrodeposition of CoWP and NiMoP as capping/barrier layers for Cu interconnection. Electrochemical studies (using voltammetry and chronoamperometry) were carried out to find out a rate-determining step and nucleation mechanism for the deposition of CoWP and NiMoP films. The investigation of the effects of process variables (such as electrolyte concentration, PH, temperature, etc.) on thickness, composition, and microstructure of the films could explain chemical and physical behaviors of the films.
CoWP and NiMoP films were also deposited by an electroless plating method using alkali metal-free electrolytes. Due to unique characteristic of electroless plating, electrolessly deposited CoWP and NiMop films showed interesting results.
CoWP films can also be useful for other technological applications since Co-based alloy have good magnetic, physical, and mechanical properties. We investigated coating properties of CoWP films and find out that hardness and corrosion resistance of the CoWP films could be greatly improved, compared to Cr coating.

To learn more about OmniTel—aw, shucks, thanks!—click here.
Frequently Asked Questions
ALL ABOUT FIBER
OmniTel Fiber is an exciting project to bring Fiber-to-the Home (FTTH) technology to homes and businesses in Carson. This fiber technology will provide speeds to fulfill all your needs now and into the future. During the fiber installation process, OmniTel Communications will construct a network of fiber optic cables that use light instead of electricity to carry a digital data signal.
Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) is the broadband delivery model that brings fiber optic cables all the way to the home or business. We will bury brand new optical lines from our equipment into your home or business, completely bypassing the copper network in place. Lasers and receivers at your home and in our equipment will transmit your data at the upload/download speed of your choice
A fiber connection will provide you with access to virtually unlimited bandwidth capacity and internet speed, enabling you to enjoy a better experience when you’re doing things like streaming, gaming, using cloud storage, video chatting, and more. Fiber also increases service reliability and stability. FTTH can even increase the value of a home by several thousand dollars and increase the amount renters are willing to pay!
You’ve heard the phrase “the speed of light,” right? Fiber-optic cables contain optical fiber, which are hair-thin strands of glass specially designed to trap and transmit light pulses. Unlike copper, optical fiber can carry data for great distances without signal loss or interference. Optical fiber can also transmit signals in both directions simultaneously—allowing you to upload and download at extremely high speeds.
PHASE 1: PRE-REGISTRATION AND SIGN UP
OmniTel’s goal is to build out and provide services to Carson as efficiently as possible. Our pre-registration form lets us collect the required information from interested residents quickly. The information we collect will not be shared with other companies.
Nope! The interest form is merely a tool for us to identify those residents who would like to be contacted immediately to start the conversation about Fiber and/or to learn more about the services OmniTel offers.
The Pre-registration phase will remain open until construction is completed in Carson. By pre-registering, you’ll also get the standard installation for FREE—a value of more than $300!
PHASE 2: INSTALLATION
While crews are in your area, OmniTel will cover the cost of construction up to your premises—you will not be charged. However, if you do not pre-register and decide later that you want fiber (after the crews have left your area), there will be an installation charge. That’s why pre-registration make good sense—and dollars! The included standard installation is a value of more than $300.
Buried fiber is protected from elements such as fire, windstorms, and ice storms. It provides a much more reliable network for our customers.
We’ll do everything we can to make sure to minimize any disturbance and will promptly restore your property as close to its original condition.
We’ll install a Network Interface Device (NID) on the outside of your home or business, a fiber jack, and an optical network terminal (ONT). The ONT contains electronics that terminate the fiber-optic cable and converts the signals of light back into usable internet and telephone signals. The ONT can optionally include basic Wi-Fi or simply hand off internet to a personal router.
PHASE 3: INTERNET, PHONE, AND TELEVISION SERVICES
OmniTel will immediately offer internet, phone, and television services. Initially, we’ll offer residential and business customers speeds up to 1 Gbps (1,000 Mbps).

A QR Code is a two dimensional barcode which is readable only by digital cameras equipped with camera devices capable of displaying such codes. These codes are used as identification features in shops, restaurants, vending machines, etc. They can be scanned to obtain access to indoor and outdoor retail outlets. The main purpose for which they are used is for interactive marketing, wherein the user is required to interact with the advertisement (such as in online stores) by providing his/her name, address, contact details, and even a few selected items.
There are several software applications available for creating your own unique QR codes. They offer step-by-step guides for scanning various common household items like cups, plates, books, plastic bags, buttons, etc. Some even allow users to choose specific images to be printed on the code. Other software can analyze the frequency in which users scan the code and how long they are willing to spend for reading/scrolling through the advertisement.
With the increasing demand for qr codes, entrepreneurs and printing companies have taken up the task of creating more creative and unique barcodes. They have come up with a number of options like ‘scan and order’ schemes, wherein the consumer has to just scan the code and wait for the product to be delivered at their doorstep. Another option is ‘qr code tracking’ where the customer can track the progress of his order through his/her id. This is helpful in case of returns and emergency repairs. A ‘qr code tracking’ system would be useful for retailers too as they would get regular updates about the location of their customers.
In line with this, some companies have started providing high resolution scanners for use by consumers for personal or professional purposes. The high resolution scanners are designed to produce digital scans of large items like refrigerators, shelves, bookcases, etc. The scanners provided by these companies can produce digital barcodes that are easy to understand and read, but can also generate high resolution barcodes with higher density which are suitable for outdoor usage.
The creation of customized QR codes is possible by using software called ‘riad’ generator. The ‘riad’ generator is based on the idea of generating dynamic QR codes by taking advantage of the knowledge of the regular scanner. With the use of a scanner, it is possible to scan a normal barcode, and the resulting information would be translated into a dynamic qr code that contains all the desired information. Software that generates dynamic qr codes can be downloaded from the internet.


PACS can be defined as a system for digitally acquiring, archiving and transmitting panoramic and local radiological images.
TıpPlus PACS System not only provides storage of digitally acquired images, but also enables these images to be transmitted to any computer or other centers within the health center via computer networks.
The connection between the Hospital Information System, the Radiology Information System, and the PACS allows monitoring of radiological images, as well as reports of images and other recorded patient information via the intranet. Thus, when the physician presses a button, he can access all the patient’s information from his desk and perform comparative evaluation.
One of the most important advantages of TıpPlus PACS is that digital images can be sent to health centers anywhere in the world.
In the PACS system, images can be stored as DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine), that is, medical images from different devices can be stored in the standard information format used worldwide.
Thus, this information can be transmitted to other computers in the hospital, as well as to other centers in the country or to centers abroad.

Estadium Internet of People & Things (IoPT)
For this project, my team and I wanted to focus on how to encourage energy savings. Our user group was young people who are living together in a home. The users were trying to conserve energy, save money, and be eco-friendly. They were also trying to accomplish these tasks while cooperating with other household members. A system was needed to address the numerous challenges users faced in trying to accomplish these goals.
This project is a in-stadium app that displays all the play-by-play videos during Georgia Tech football games. It has been in progress for several years and currently is run as part of the Vertically Integrated Projects program, which promotes undergraduate research. I worked with modifying legacy code and transferring the project from a PHP version of the app to an Angular version.
As a team, we met weekly to keep each other updated on current bug problems and also ideas for new features that we wanted implemented. It was important to maintain version control, so each member had their own server to test changes on. If new code was proven to work, then it would be pushed to our production version. For new features, we followed an Agile development process where we explored different use cases and did user testing before adopting and implementing a new feature.
I worked on the Web App subteam of the Estadium research team. The team consisted of seven other students who brought their knowledge from diverse backgrounds in computer science and electrical engineering to the project. We also had mentors who guided us through the development process.
In terms of computer languages, I gained familiarity with PHP with the old version of the app, and AngularsJS and HTML with the newer version. I also worked with EyeTV and OBS when we were in the football stadium splicing the videos.

KnowRob -- Robot Knowledge Processing
KnowRob is a knowledge processing system that combines knowledge representation and reasoning methods with techniques for acquiring knowledge from different sources and for grounding the knowledge in a physical system. It provides robots with knowledge to be used in their tasks, for example action descriptions, object models, environment maps, and models of the robot's hardware and capabilities. The knowledge base is complemented with reasoning methods and techniques for grounding abstract, high-level information about actions and objects in the perceived sensor data.
KnowRob became the main knowledge base in the ROS ecosystem and is actively being used in different academic and industrial research labs around the world. Several European research projects use the system for a wide range of applications, from understanding instructions from the Web (RoboHow), describing multi-robot search-and-rescue tasks (SHERPA), assisting elderly people in their homes (SRS) to industrial assembly tasks (SMErobotics).
KnowRob is an open-source project hosted at GitHub that also provides extensive documentation on its website – from getting-started guides to tutorials for advanced topics in robot knowledge representation.
CRAM -- Robot Plans
CRAM is a high-level system for designing and performing abstract robot plans to define intelligent robot behavior. It consists of a library of generic, robot platform independent plans, elaborate reasoning mechanisms for detecting and repairing plan failures, as well as interface modules for executing these plans on real robot hardware. It supplies robots with concurrent, reactive task execution capabilities and makes use of knowledge processing backends, such as KnowRob, for information retrieval.
CRAM builds on top of the ROS ecosystem and is actively developed as an open-source project on GitHub. It is the basis for high-level robot control in many parts of the world, especially in several European research projects covering applications from geometrically abstract object manipulation (RoboHow), multi-robot task coordination and execution (SHERPA), experience based task parametrization retrieval (RoboEarth), and safe human robot interaction (SAPHARI). Further information, as well as documentation and application use-cases can be found at the CRAM website.
openEASE -- Experiment Knowledge Database
OpenEASE is a generic knowledge database for collecting and analysing experiment data. Its foundation is the KnowRob knowledge processing system and ROS, enhanced by reasoning mechanisms and a web interface developed for inspecting comprehensive experiment logs. These logs can be recorded for example from complex CRAM plan executions, virtual reality experiments, or human tracking systems. OpenEASE offers interfaces for both, human researchers that want to visually inspect what has happened during a robot experiment, and robots that want to reason about previous task executions in order to improve their behavior.
The OpenEASE web interface as well as further information and publication material can be accessed through its publicly available website. It is meant to make complex experiment data available to research fields adjacent to robotics, and to foster an intuition about robot experience data.
RoboSherlock -- Framework for Cognitive Perception
RoboSherlock is a common framework for cognitive perception, based on the principle of unstructured information management (UIM). UIM has proven itself to be a powerful paradigm for scaling intelligent information and question answering systems towards real-world complexity (i.e. the Watson system from IBM). Complexity in UIM is handled by identifying (or hypothesizing) pieces of structured information in unstructured documents, by applying ensembles of experts for annotating information pieces, and by testing and integrating these isolated annotations into a comprehensive interpretation of the document.
RoboSherlock builds on top of the ROS ecosystem and is able to wrap almost any existing perception algorithm/framework, and allows easy and coherent combination of the results of these. The framework has a close integration with two of the most popular libraries used in robotic perception, namely OpneCV and PCL. More details about RoboSherlock can be found on the project webpage.
In the following, we list our proposals for the Google Summer of Code topics that contribute to the aforementioned open-source projects.
Topic 1: Multi-modal Cluttered Scene Analysis in Knowledge Intensive Scenarios
Main Objective: In this topic we will develop algorithms that en- able robots in a human environment to recognize objects in diffi- cult and challenging scenarios. To achieve this the participant will develop annotators for RoboSherlock that are particularly aimed at object-hypotheses generation and merging. Generating a hypotheses essentially means to generate regions/clusters in our raw data that form a single object or object-part. In particular this entails the de- velopment of segmentation algorithms for visually challenging scenes or object properties, as the likes of transparent objects, or cluttered, occluded scenes. The addressed scenarios include stacked, occluded objects placed on shelves, objects in drawers, refrigerators, dishwash- ers, cupboards etc. In typical scenarios, these confined spaces also bare an underlying structure, which will be exploited, and used as background knowledge, to aid perception (e.g. stacked plates would show up as parallel lines using an edge detection). Specifically we would start from (but not necessarly limit ourselves to) the implemen- tation of two state-of-the-art algorithms described in recent papers:
 Aleksandrs Ecins, Cornelia Fermuller and Yiannis Aloimonos, Cluttered Scene Segmentation Using the Symmetry Constraint, International Conference on Robotics and Automation(ICRA) 2016  Richtsfeld A., M ̈ orwald T., Prankl J., Zillich M. and Vincze M. - Segmentation of Unknown Objects in Indoor Environments. IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Sys- tems (IROS), 2012.
Task Difficulty: The task is considered to be challenging, as it is still a hot research topic where general solutions do not exist.
Requirements: Good programming skills in C++ and basic knowledge of CMake and ROS. Experience with PCL, OpenCV is prefered.
Expected Results: Currently the RoboSherlock framework lacks good perception algorithms that can generate object-hypotheses in challenging scenarios(clutter and/or occlusion). The expected results are several software components based on recent advances in cluttered scene analysis that are able to successfully recognized objects in the scenarios mentioned in the objectives, or a subset of these.

Topic 2: Realistic Grasping using Unreal Engine
Main Objective: The objective of the project is to implement var- ious human-like grasping approaches in a game developed using Unreal Engine.
The game consist of a household environment where a user has to execute various given tasks, such as cooking a dish, setting the table, cleaning the dishes etc. The interaction is done using various sensors to map the users hands onto the virtual hands in the game.
In order to improve the ease of manipulating objects the user should be able to switch during runtime the type of grasp (pinch, power grasp, precision grip etc.) he/she would like to use.
Task Difficulty: The task is to be placed in the easy difficulty level, as it requires less algorithmic knowledge and more programming skills.
Requirements: Good programming skills in C++. Good knowledge of the Unreal Engine API. Experience with skeletal control / animations / 3D models in Unreal Engine.
Expected Results We expect to enhance our currently developed robot learning game with realistic human-like grasping capabilities. These would allow users to interact more realistically with the given virtual environment. Having the possibility to manipulate objects of various shapes and sizes will allow to increase the repertoire of the executed tasks in the game. Being able to switch between specific grasps will allow us to learn grasping models specific to each manipulated object.

Topic 3: ROS with PR2 integration in Unreal Engine
Main Objective: The objective of the project is to integrate the PR2 8 robot in Unreal Engine with ROS support. Due to the lack of Windows OS support of ROS, this will be imple-mented in the Linux distribution of the engine.
Task Difficulty: The task is to be placed in the medium difficulty level, as it requires programming skills of various frameworks (ROS, Linux, Unreal Engine).
Requirements: Good programming skills in C++. Good knowledge of the Unreal Engine API, ROS and Linux. Some experience in robotics.
Expected Results We expect to be able to load URDF models of varios robots (e.g. PR2) and be able to control them through ROS in the game engine. In a similar fashion to a robotic simulator.
Contact: Andrei Haidu
Topic 4: Plan Library for Autonomous Robots performing Chemical Experiments
Main Objective: of this theme is to develop in Gazebo simulator a set of plan-based control programs which will equip an autonomous mobile robot to perform a set of typical manipulations within a chemistry laboratory. The set of plan-based control programs resulted at the end of the program will be tested on the real PR2 robot from the Institute for Artificial Intelligence of the University of Bremen, Germany.
The successful candidate will use the domain specific language of CRAM toolbox and code plan-based control programs which will enable the PR2 robot to perform manipulations like: simple grasping of different containers, screwing and unscrewing the cap of a test tube, pouring a substance from a container into another container, operating a centrifuge, etc.
In the first phase of the project the successful candidate will make sure he/she is familiar with the domain specific language of CRAM toolbox and the parameters of the plan-based control programs. This phase will culminate with the student having coded a simple complete and fully runnable plan-based control program.
In the second phase of the project together with the successful candidate we will decide the set of manipulations which will be implemented in order to enable the robot to perform a simple and complete chemical experiment.
In the last phase of the project, the plan-based control programs developed in the second phase will be put together and the complete chemical experiment will be tested and fixed until it runs successfully.
The set of plan-based control programs resulted at the end of the program will represent the execution basis of the future experiments which will be done at IAI in order to figure out how an autonomous robot can reproduce a chemical experiment represented with semantic web tools.
Requirements: The ideal candidate must be comfortable programming in LISP and familiar with the ROS concepts. The candidate familiar with the Gazebo simulator and CRAM toolbox will have a big plus.
Expected Results We expect to successfully code a library of plan-based control programs which will enable an autonomous robot to manipulate the typical chemical laboratory equipment and perform a small class of chemical experiments in Gazebo simulator.

You carry it in your pocket, it goes with you to work, school, and everywhere else you go in a day. A cell phone is most likely one thing that you never leave home without. Unfortunately, cell phone batteries are not infinite, and you will sometimes have get recharged even when away from home. Keeping a plug-in car charger in your car is incredibly convenient. However, there are some people who refuse to use a car charger thanks to a few common misconceptions.
Misconception: Using a cell phone charger in your car will cause it to use more fuel.
Fact: The cell phone charger plugs into a lighter or other outlet that is linked to the battery of the car. Therefore, the charger is essentially drawing power only from the battery. However, the car battery is not long running on its own. The battery remains powered by a component in the motor called the alternator, which continuously runs to convert fuel to power that replenishes the energy levels in the battery. Therefore, you could say that you are getting power from fuel, but this is not a direct occurrence and when the car is running and is fairly insignificant.
Misconception: Charging your phone with a car charger will damage your phone.
Fact: Modern cell phones are designed to stop receiving power when the battery is full. Further, the car charger regulates the amount of energy delivered through a continuous circuit system. Older cell phone batteries were infamous for overheating due to too much charge, but new batteries will not have the same issue. Therefore, the risk of damaging your phone due to overcharging or surges of power is null and void.
Misconception: Using a car charger will drain your car battery.
Fact: If you are using a car charger to charge your phone when the car is not running, there is a small chance that it could drain too much power from your battery. However, this would only be the case if you have an extremely weak battery already. When your vehicle is running, the alternator will supply enough energy to eliminate any concerns. If you believe your charger is too much of a tax on your battery, keeping a spare cell phone battery with you is always an option.
You may have to rely on a cell phone when you are away from the house and having the ability to charge your phone on the go is an all out necessity. Make sure you do not let misconceptions about charging your cell phone battery with a car charger lead you to believe that this is not a good idea.

The revolutionary, easy to use and entertaining Vivo V21E is ready to take you to the next level of mobile phone technology. Powered by the advanced Cubic Technologyller 4.5 inch Android operating system, this smartphone has all of the features that you would expect from a high-end device Vivo V21e. The Vivo V 21E smartphone is bold, sleek, technologically advanced, yet extremely affordable. All of the cutting-edge capabilities of this smartphone are packed into a beautiful, durable body.
This device runs on the android operating system, which offers superb graphics and high quality sound quality. With a resolution of 4016 pixels, the pixel density on this handset is amazing. The powerful Cubic Engine also offers users excellent multi-tasking capabilities, such as taking photos, streaming video, playing games, connecting to the internet, checking email, surfing the net, sending text messages, and playing games. The vivid color screen is also complimented with an eight mega pixel clear display.
The two additional features the Vivo v 21E comes standard with are a high-speed modem, which is perfect for data downloads, along with a built in battery. The modem helps to provide users with a secure network, as it uses BitDefender’s AMST protection technology to stop hack attempts, and provides high-speed data transmission. The built in battery gives users up to eighteen hours of usage, so that they can continue making their day to day connections, while not missing a beat. On top of all of these amazing features, the phone also comes standard with a 2 mega-apixel rear camera, a front-facing camera, a solid touch screen, a large and comfortable keyboard, a memory card reader, a USB port, a infrared proximity sensor, a heart rate monitor, a speaker, and it even has an integrated speaker.
If you’re looking for a way to add a little more spice and variety to your vivos, you can opt to get the Vivo v 21E body instead of the skin that comes standard. These body sliders are made out of tough and durable Gorilla Glass, which makes for an exceptionally sharp and clear display. There’s no doubt that the Gorilla glass on the exterior of the Vivo v 21E gives it an edge over most phones, but if you’re looking for a phone with a little more personality, then you can go with the standard skin. While the standard skin will give you the same amount of screen real estate that you would find on most phones, the body sliders offer you a choice of colors. Black, blue, white, yellow, or red are all available, along with a wide array of vibrant patterns, such as paisley, neon green, and classic black. The real fun with these sliders is that they can be used to accessorize your vivos in any number of different ways, so you shouldn’t have too much trouble finding a funky or fun set up that fits your individual tastes.
To go along with the high-powered camera on the back of the Vivo v 21E is a powerful secondary battery called the xiaomi chargestation pro. This powerful little battery should last you through a full day of moderate use, making it the perfect addition to your arsenal of daily cellular phone tools. xiaomi chargestation pro should also be compatible with the primary battery, which means you’ll be able to swap batteries in almost real-life conditions-just bring the secondary phone inside and snap it into the slot when you need to use it. You won’t need to worry about dropping this phone because the built-in lithium ion battery is also capable of sustaining a decent amount of screen glare without becoming overly dim. The Chargestation pro is also USB interface compatible, which means you can connect it directly to your computer without having to go through the modem.
For more advanced features, the Vivo v 21E also comes with two extra cameras on the rear including a pan/tilt/zoom lens as well as a front facing monocular camera for video conferencing. While the primary image cam will give you the most functionality, the second one will be useful for situations where you want to capture more information or cut out something important to share with your social group. You can also use the rear camera to take pictures in manual mode, which gives you the chance to play around with the size of the image. The battery on the Vivo v 21E may seem a little small, but it will last you through a full day of moderate use and provide hours of entertainment for your smartphone.

Unique Device Identification (UDI): How to Comply with FDA Guidelines?
How to Comply with the UDI Rules of FDA?
The implementation of the Unique Device Identification (UDI) system brings significant advancements to the medical device industry. The FDA’s UDI Rule mandates the inclusion of a unique device identifier on medical device labels, facilitating enhanced traceability, post-market safety activities, and monitoring by regulatory authorities.
By understanding the basics of UDI and its requirements, manufacturers and stakeholders can navigate the regulatory landscape more effectively and contribute to improved patient safety and device management.
Introduction to Unique Device Identification (UDI)
The unique device identification system adequately identifies medical devices sold in the market from manufacturing through distribution to patient use. The FDA UDI Rule requires the labeler to include a unique device identifier (UDI) on the labels and packages of the devices, unless there are specific exceptions or alternatives allowed by the rule.
If a device is meant to be used multiple times and needs to be reprocessed before each use, the UDI must also be directly marked on the device itself. The labeler must submit device information to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID). This database serves as a centralized repository for UDI-related data.
In summary, the UDI Rule mandates manufacturers to label their devices with a unique identifier and share relevant information about the devices in the GUDID.
Who is a Labeler?
A labeler refers to any individual or entity that is responsible for applying or modifying a label on a device, with the intention of commercially distributing the device without further label changes. The labeler is typically the device manufacturer, but it can also include other entities such as specification developers, single-use device re-processors, convenience kit assemblers, re-packagers, or re-labelers.
A Closer Look at the Unique Device Identification (UDI) Format
The UDI is a distinctive code made up of either numeric or alphanumeric characters, which typically comprises two parts: the Device Identifier (DI) and the Production Identifier (PI).
- Lot or batch number: This identifies the specific lot or batch within which a device was manufactured. It helps track and trace devices in case of any quality or safety issues.
- Serial number: This identifies the unique serial number of an individual device. It allows for precise identification and tracking of a specific unit throughout its lifecycle
- Date of manufacture: This signifies the specific date when a device was manufactured. It provides information about the production timeline and can be useful for quality control and inventory management purposes.
- Expiration date: This indicates the date when a specific device is expected to expire and should no longer be used. It is particularly relevant for devices with limited shelf life or those that have expiration date requirements for safety and efficacy.
- Distinct identification code for HCT/P: This pertains to human cell, tissue, or cellular and tissue-based products (HCT/P) regulated as devices. These products require a distinct identification code as per the requirements outlined in §1271.290(c).
Presentation of Unique Device Identifier (UDI)
Under the FDA UDI Rule, the device labeler is required to provide the Unique Device Identifier (UDI) in two forms on the labels and packages of medical devices:
- Easily Readable Plain-Text: The UDI must be presented in a format that is easily readable by humans. This typically means using clear, legible text that can be easily understood without the need for any specialized equipment.
- Machine-Readable Form: In addition to the plain-text form, the UDI must also be encoded in a machine-readable format that utilizes automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) technology. This enables the UDI to be scanned or captured electronically using barcode scanners, RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) readers, or other similar devices.
By providing the UDI in both easily readable plain-text and machine-readable form, the device labeler ensures that the UDI is accessible and usable by both humans and automated systems, promoting efficient tracking and identification of medical devices.

Unique Device Identification (UDI) Issuing Organization
Deadlines for Compliance with UDI Rule
The FDA has issued a reminder to the device industry and UDI program stakeholders to comply with the UDI Rule before September 24, 2023. Starting from September 24, 2023, devices must comply with all UDI requirements on labels.
Submitting Information to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID)
Device labelers have an obligation to submit information to the GUDID, which is administered by the FDA. GUDID stores a standardized set of fundamental identifying elements for each device that has a Unique Device Identifier (UDI). However, it’s important to note that GUDID solely includes the device identifier (DI), which acts as the primary key for retrieving device information from the database. The production identifier (PI), on the other hand, is not included in GUDID.
Benefits of Unique Device Identification (UDI)
The fully implemented Unique Device Identification (UDI) System offers a range of benefits to multiple stakeholders. It enables more accurate and efficient reporting of adverse events, leading to quicker identification and resolution of device issues. Medical errors are reduced as healthcare professionals can rapidly identify devices and access crucial information.
The UDI System enhances device analysis, supporting post-market surveillance, facilitating device approvals, and improving recall management. It also establishes a secure global distribution chain, combating counterfeiting and preparing for emergencies.
Implementing UDI on device labels and packaging requires careful consideration of space limitations, readability, and design consistency. Ensuring that labels and packages meet regulatory requirements while maintaining aesthetic appeal can be a challenge.
Exemption from Unique Device Identification (UDI)
The followings are the exemption from the UDI Rule. Please refer to the UDI Rule for more details.
- Class I devices that FDA has exempted from Good Manufacturing Practices
- Individual single-use devices, all of a single version or model, that are distributed together in a single device package
- Custom-made device
- Device intended for export from the United States
In conclusion, the introduction of the UDI system revolutionizes the identification and tracking of medical devices. The FDA’s UDI Rule establishes clear guidelines for labelers to incorporate unique device identifiers on labels and packages, with necessary submissions to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID).

Digital Twin Yard (DTYard)
The Norwegian Research Council in late 2018 awarded the partners Kongsberg Maritime, DNV GL and Sintef with funding for the project Digital Twin Yard (DTYard), RCN number 295918. The project will run from 2019 to 2022 and secure both funding and commitment to continue the Open Simulation Platform development towards efficient collaborative simulations for the maritime industry.
The project will build on ideas and technology from the Open Simulation Platform JIP to create an ecosystem that can facilitate further collaboration between platforms and libraries for digital twin simulation of complex, integrated systems and software.
The grand vision of the Digital Twin Yard (DTYard) is to establish a maritime industry ecosystem for models and digital twin system simulations. The DTYard will facilitate efficient and effective construction of digital twin systems and ships in a collaborative effort between stakeholders including owner, yard, equipment manufacturers and sub-suppliers.
Digital Twins for Vessel Life Cycle Service (TwinShip)
This project is funded by Norwegian Research Council as a Knowledge-building Project for Industry (KPN), RCN number 28073, and the main activities are performed by PhD students at NTNU in Ålesund, supported by Kongsberg Maritime, DNV GL and Sintef Ålesund.
The goal of this research is to develop digital twins of maritime systems and operations, which is an open virtual simulator as the next generation of marine industrial infrastructure not only for overall system design, allowing configuration of systems and verification of operational performance, but also more focusing to provide early warning, life cycle service support, and system behaviour prediction.

LH2 Pioneer – Ultra-insulated seaborne containment system for global LH2 ship transport
Hydrogen has the potential of becoming a major energy commodity and can enable low- or zero-emission energy use in several of the world’s energy sectors, such as power generation, road and rail transport, sea transport and energy- and emission-intensive industries. A major challenge in a mass rollout scenario for hydrogen is energy- and cost-efficient storage, transport and distribution from origin to end users. For hydrogen value chains to become economically viable, large volumes and scaled-up technology is mandatory. Liquid hydrogen (LH2) transport and storage can play a major role in hydrogen trade. LH2 is a promising option and offers superior flexibility in the receiving end with respect to energy flux, purity, pressurisation and distribution. LH2P is organised to generate crucial new knowledge about the key technologies needed for feasible large-scale LH2 transportation, reflecting a high level of novelty and scientific ambition. The project aims to develop a pioneering conceptual design for a large and cost-efficient liquid hydrogen containment system with 40′-45 000 m3 volume per tank and boiloff rates feasible for deep sea transport, targeting 0.1 % per day, taking this to TRL 2-3 (analytical validation) and thus preparing for further increase to TRL 4-6 in subsequent development projects. LH2P will also work systematically to de-risk and advance the TRL of other associated technologies: Vessel hull design and propulsion and power system; Onboard boiloff gas handling system; LH2 loading systems for full-scale efficient and safe LH2 transfer onto carriers.

We already had a strong hunch that it was coming to US Cellular, thanks to the FCC, but now it's official: Samsung's iconic Galaxy S II is finally making its way to the regional carrier in the coming weeks for $230 on a two-year contract and after a $100 mail-in rebate. This version of the GSII offers the same 1.2GHz dual-core Exynos CPU found in the original version, as well as a 4.
Cat. 4, Cat. 6, and now Cat. 10. These chipmakers are really pushing the cellular capabilities of their products to the limits, perhaps even faster than networks can actually adopt these network speeds. Of course, that has never been a reason for the likes of Qualcomm and Samsung to take it easy.
Samsung -centric tech blog Sam Mobile has once again called upon the power of their Samsung sources and all but confirmed that the Samsung Galaxy S4 – last year’s flagship smartphone – will get an official update to Android 5.0.
With the release of the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge in Germany comes proof that Samsung needs to do something BRAND NEW with their Galaxy S lineup. Earlier this year - soon after the Galaxy Note Edge was announced - Samsung announced they'd be bringing the Note Edge to Germany. On one condition: they'd have to vote on it.
Not sure whether to buy the Galaxy S5 or the new iPhone 6? Rumor has it that Samsung is coming out with its next Galaxy flagship. According to SamMobile , the new Galaxy S phone will be called the Galaxy S6. Is it stirring up excitement for Android users as the iPhone 6 did? As of right now it doesn’t seem so because Samsung is in the early stages of development for the new Galaxy S6.
It's called codename Project Zero, they say, and it'll change the way the Samsung Galaxy line has been evolving over the past several years. If the Samsung Galaxy S III was Samsung's coming of age, the Samsung Galaxy S6 will be a revolution. Of design, mostly - not so much on the specifications. We're in a stagnated state of affairs in the smartphone business across the board, after all. It's the physical design of the smartphone that'll be changing, not necessarily the experience.
As with the past Galaxy flagship phones from Samsung , we can expect that the S6 and the S6 edge will have several variants. The latest models announced during the CES 2015 impressed a lot of Android fans but sadly, they're not waterproof like the Galaxy S5 . However, Samsung is believed to be working on a waterproof and a more rugged version of the phone which will be the new Galaxy S6 Active.
Samsung has shown it's not afraid to chase big legal injunctions when it believes its patents are at stake, and now it's NVIDIA facing a US sales block at the hands of the South Korean firm. A complaint filed on Friday asks the US International Trade Commission to shut down sales of NVIDIA 's graphics chips, alleging they infringe Samsung's own intellectual property.
If today's report on the sales of the Galaxy S5 are true, Samsung's next release will need to be a doozy. We previously had a chat on what Samsung was potentially getting into with the Galaxy S6 - how they may be working on a "Project Zero", a reboot of the entire series, a re-imagining of the smartphone monster they've created.

Things have been relatively quiet on the mobile front this week, seemingly the great quiet before the storm. Of course, that doesn't mean nothing of importance passed us by. This week saw one of the biggest updates to Android Wear: official support for watch faces. We've also seen a good number of games land on Android. India also continues to be mired in controversy .
This week a tip has come in from Korea that Apple may well have made up and shaken hands with Samsung for future chip production. This would be a multi-billion-dollar deal as it would remove TSMC from the equation, pushing Samsung back into the limelight for Apple device innards. Samsung has been a chipmaker for Apple before, but they had a bit of a falling out over the past several years.
If you’ve followed Samsung for a while, you know that they like to put out two variants of their flagship phones – one usually armed with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, which usually is the international version.
There were rumors last month of Samsung coming out with another series of smartphones which will parallel the single letter naming convention of the Galaxy S line and the more recent “A Series”. The then-upcoming “U Series” was rumored to be a high-end line, focusing on super-slim form factors. But whispers from within the company are saying that this development may be on hold.
We know the Samsung Galaxy S4 is getting Android 5.0 Lollipop update but we don't know when the Russians would be able to get their hands on the sweet version. A Galaxy S4 with Lollipop build was leaked a few months ago after a related rumor came out. Of course, the Android 5.0 update was officially released for the Galaxy S4 but only made available in a few countries.
Samsung has finally announced the nitty gritty details, or at least some of it, when its prime smartphones launch in the US. The Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 edge will arrive in the US via multiple carriers, both postpaid and prepaid, and many, many retailers. This all starts on March 27, when you can put down a pre-order for either, or maybe even both, of the two.
All the great features and functions of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 has been extensively covered, which started when it was just rumors and continued when the OEM hyped up the latest version of its phablet line. All its secrets have been revealed, or so that's what we thought.

What Is a Polymer Fuse
Commonly known as a fuse or fuse, a fuse is a non-recoverable fuse that can only be replaced with a new fuse after it has blown. It is indicated by "F" or "FU" in the circuit.
The structural characteristics of the ordinary fuse
Ordinary fuse is usually composed of glass tube, metal cap and fuse. Two metal caps set in the glass tube ends, the fuse (made of low melting point metal materials) installed in the glass tube, its two ends were welded in the center of the two metal caps on the hole. When using the fuse into the fuse holder, in series with the circuit can be.
Most of the fuses are linear fuses, only the delayed fuses used in color TVs and computer monitors are spiral fuses.
The main parameters of the ordinary fuse
The main parameters of ordinary fuses are rated current, rated voltage, ambient temperature and response speed. The rated current, also known as the breaking capacity, refers to the current value that the fuse can fuse at the rated voltage. The normal working current of the fuse is 30% below the rated current. Domestic fuse rated current value is usually marked directly on the metal cap, the imported fuse is marked with a color ring on the glass tube.
Rated voltage refers to the most adjustable voltage of the fuse, which is divided into four specifications of 32V, 125V, 250V and 600V. The actual working voltage of the fuse should be lower or equal to the rated voltage value. If the working voltage value of the fuse exceeds the rated voltage value, it will quickly fuse.
The experiment of the current carrying capacity of the fuse is carried out under the ambient temperature condition of 25℃. The service life of the fuse is inversely proportional to the working ambient temperature. The higher the ambient temperature, the higher the working temperature of the fuse, and the shorter its life.
Reaction speed refers to the rapidity of the fuse to respond to various electrical loads. Fuse according to the response speed and performance can be divided into normal response type, delayed disconnect type, fast action type and current limit type.

Osamu Motojima: Harnessing the 93-million-mile dream
Today, seven members—the European Union, the United States, Japan, China, Russia, South Korea, and India—have formed an organization and invested in what is planned to be the world’s first reactor-scale fusion machine. By 2027, the France-based, multibillion-euro experiment known as ITER aims to produce 10 times the energy it consumes. In this interview, Osamu Motojima, the project’s director general, discusses the skepticism surrounding fusion as a practical energy source, the staggering costs of a large-scale fusion project, and the likelihood that ITER will be the silver bullet that slays the world’s future energy woes.
