Electric tractors

23.07.2022

Indian startup Cellestial E-Mobility, a subsidiary of Tube Investments of India (TII) and Murugappa Group ventures, has officially unveiled India's first electric tractors.

The startup developed three models of tractors with power from 27 hp at once. up to 55 hp The sale of electric tractors is planned within the next three months.

Tractors will cost comparatively less than units with a conventional standard diesel engine. The price is expected to be between $7570-$10090.

"Electric tractors are designed for use in the field, as well as in gardening or greenhouses. The machines are equipped with an Indian household socket for recharging. Electric tractors can cover a distance of up to 75 km on a single charge and reach speeds of up to 25 km / h. At the same time, the units have a PTO, hydraulics and all-wheel drive," the manufacturer said in a statement.

Charging the battery of the electric tractor is carried out using a basic household charger from a conventional single-phase 16A socket, this process takes about 6 hours.

At the same time, thanks to the industrial charging station, the battery can be charged even faster, for example, in just 2 hours. The tractors are also equipped with regenerative braking and power inverting functionality, allowing them to power their own UPS for backup power.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

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, ... >>

STM32 Nucleo Digital Audio Expansion Boards 03.07.2020

The new X-NUCLEO-CCA01M1 Expansion Board is an expansion board based on the STA2.1BW Sound Terminal 350-channel high performance audio terminal with digital audio output system. It can be paired with the STM32 Nucleo board and allows you to output a digital audio stream to a pair of speakers connected directly to it. The STM32 MCU controls the STA350BW by I2C, and the I2S bus is used to transmit audio data.

The high performance of STM32 microcontrollers allows you to create low-cost digital audio processing devices, from a digital MEMS microphone to transmitting audio to a PC via USB or local playback using external speakers. With the FP-AUD-SMARTMIC1 software and the X-NUCLEO-CCA01M1 and X-NUCLEO-CCA02M2 expansion boards, a developer can launch their first digital audio application in just hours.

X-NUCLEO-CCA02M2 expansion board contains two MP34DT06J digital MEMS microphones. Up to 4 miniature microphone modules STEVAL-MIC001V1, STEVAL-MIC002V1 and STEVAL-MIC003V1 can be additionally installed on this board. The board allows you to organize the transfer of digital audio from microphones to STM32 through I2S, DFSDM, SPI or SAI peripheral modules (selected by jumpers). Additionally, the board has a USB connector through which you can connect the USB port of the MCU directly to a PC for audio input/output.

FP-AUD-SMARTMIC1 is a dedicated STM32Cube software package for digital audio. This software package implements the functions of input and conversion of data from MEMS microphones, echo cancellation and localization of the direction to the sound source. The processed audio is transferred to a USB host (PC) and a loudspeaker connected to the appropriate expansion boards. Ready-made examples from the FP-AUD-SMARTMIC1 package can be run on the STM32 NUCLEO-F446RE microcontroller board, to which the X-NUCLEO-CCA01M1 and X-NUCLEO-CCA02M2 expansion boards are additionally connected.
