Shows the deposition of liposomes on to the surface of an optical chip and their subsequent rupture and merger to form a lipid bilayer. Protein molecules then embed and float in the surface of the bilayer. This is an excerpt from a video that iemedia solutions (http://www.iemedia.co.uk) produced for the Scientific Instrumentation Division of the [...]

3D Tracking – Two 4-quadrant devices track a photo-detector target in 3D space. As a result of the two separate relative position acquisitions, a real-world XYZ position measurement is possible, and the result is presented to the user in mm distance from a reference point between the devices. System performs position measurement with 16-bit precision [...]

This scanning video technique is quite different from LCD projectors. 25 frames of real-time pictures per second can be performed on any screen by a 0.1 mW laser pointer without MEMS. Beam is modulated with playstation video signal and scanned with mirrors. Horizontal scanning freq. 15625Hz; Vertical scanning freq. 50Hz. Colour video is possible with [...]

Nanotechnology, the new science of extreme miniaturization, is a rapidly growing field in engineering. On this size scale, it is extremely difficult and expensive to fabricate analogs of macroscale engineering, such as grippers. Drawing inspiration from biological fabrication in nature, engineers are seeking to self-assemble structures from the bottom up. This manufacturing paradigm has been [...]

Step 2 of lipid bilayer construction on silicon substrates. The lipids are deposited in a solution of chloroform, which then evaporates. When the chloroform evaporates, the hydrophilic head of the lipid aligns to the water. The lipids are then collected and pressed together to form a sheet Duration : 0:0:30
