The set-top box is designed to broadcast video programs from a VCR within the apartment. It can be used, for example, to send cartoons to a children's room, or in stores to display one picture on all screens.

The board for converting video and audio signals into a modulated RF signal from the Dendy children's gaming computer (hereinafter referred to as the modulator) is taken as the basis. It is no secret that such computers often fail, and for many they either lie idle or are disassembled for details. The modulator itself rarely fails, except that the stabilizer chip burns out, but it is not used in the prefix described below.

Figure 1 shows the part of the board to be reworked (dotted). In the indicated place, all radio components and the connector should be removed, and it should be cleaned of current-carrying tracks, which is easily done with a soldering iron and tweezers.

Then, two 5 uF capacitors and two 33 kΩ variable resistors are installed in this place, as shown in Fig. 2. A 1000 uF x 16 V capacitor is connected in parallel with the power supply. If the "video" and "audio" connectors on this board are enabled (sometimes not), you should cut the tracks coming from them. The RF output jack (not shown in the figure) should be unsoldered, and the output itself should be connected with an ordinary mounting wire to an antenna, which can be any telescopic antenna from industrial radios. The modulator is powered by any 5 ... 10 V power source, for example, an adapter plug from a calculator. Due to the fact that voltage is applied to the circuit without a stabilizer, the transmission range will slightly increase.

Reception is carried out on a conventional indoor antenna by almost any TV, because. The device operates in the meter range. Setting up the transmitter comes down to setting the signal levels with variable resistors for the best image and sound quality.

Attention! It is not recommended to make such a transmitter if there is a TV broadcast in your area on the same channel on which the modulator operates.

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Major risk factor for gambling addiction 07.05.2024

Computer games are becoming an increasingly popular form of entertainment among teenagers, but the associated risk of gaming addiction remains a significant problem. American scientists conducted a study to determine the main factors contributing to this addiction and offer recommendations for its prevention. Over the course of six years, 385 teenagers were followed to find out what factors may predispose them to gambling addiction. The results showed that 90% of study participants were not at risk of addiction, while 10% became gambling addicts. It turned out that the key factor in the onset of gambling addiction is a low level of prosocial behavior. Teenagers with a low level of prosocial behavior do not show interest in the help and support of others, which can lead to a loss of contact with the real world and a deepening dependence on virtual reality offered by computer games. Based on these results, scientists ... >>

Traffic noise delays the growth of chicks 06.05.2024

The sounds that surround us in modern cities are becoming increasingly piercing. However, few people think about how this noise affects the animal world, especially such delicate creatures as chicks that have not yet hatched from their eggs. Recent research is shedding light on this issue, indicating serious consequences for their development and survival. Scientists have found that exposure of zebra diamondback chicks to traffic noise can cause serious disruption to their development. Experiments have shown that noise pollution can significantly delay their hatching, and those chicks that do emerge face a number of health-promoting problems. The researchers also found that the negative effects of noise pollution extend into the adult birds. Reduced chances of reproduction and decreased fertility indicate the long-term effects that traffic noise has on wildlife. The study results highlight the need ... >>

Biometric tattoo monitors health 07.12.2015

The American company Chaotic Moon is developing a technology for applying biometric tattoos that will be able to track the state of health.

Tech Tat technology is a temporary tattoo applied with electrically conductive paint, while a small microcontroller with several chips is attached to the skin.

The main function of such a tattoo is to monitor heart rate, body temperature and a number of other parameters, like a fitness tracker, and the device transmits all received readings to a smartphone via Bluetooth.

The developers claim that by applying a tattoo once a year, you can monitor your health without wasting time on preventive examinations in the hospital. Unlike fitness trackers, Tech Tat can be done on any part of the body.

Biometric tattoo can be used not only in the medical field, but also in some others. For example, Tech Tat is useful to the military: the technology will help determine whether a fighter is in pain or stress, as well as detect toxins in the body.

A high-tech tattoo could also act as an NFC biometric chip for wireless payments.
